I've avoided some of the foods on the list already without knowing it, like garlic and inulin (pre-biotic, that thing is in a lot of granola bars, yogurt and even pasta and it's murder on my gut). The surprises for me was onion and pit-containing fruits. I used onion in most of my dishes, and onion and garlic powder's in pretty much every sauce out there, including ketchup and miracle whip, even hot sauces that I love so muchNot surprising are the cruciferous vegetables and beans, but another surprise was the bagged salad greens that contain endives and escarole which explained why I was rumbly after I started the elimination diet. I've had a couple of meals that didn't follow the elimination diet and I've gone through it very well and I'm beginning to clue in that my triggers seem to be vegetables in general, which makes me sad because I'm more vegetarian than not. This also makes sense because when my boyfriend moved in and I started cooking a lot more meat dishes, my stomach wasn't as bad as when I was eating mostly vegetable-based dishes. Trial and error...
