Fody Foods: Freedom for Low-FODMAPers

While vegan, gluten-free, and paleo foods have definitely been having a moment, people requiring a low-FODMAP diet have been left in the dust—until now, with Fody Foods.

FODMAP stands for fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides, and polyols, which are types of carbohydrates that can be poorly digested in some people, causing unpleasant and uncomfortable gut symptoms like IBS. 

Unfortunately, FODMAPs are found in many favorite sauces, condiments, and dressings—especially those made with garlic and onions.

We make products for those who can’t digest properly … we take away the triggers so people can eat their favorite sauces and salsas and not have symptoms that they usually face.

That’s where Fody Foods comes in, the leading producer of low-FODMAP pasta sauces, ketchup, salsas, salad dressings, seasonings, and more.

As Fody Foods Partner and COO Sean Surkis tells us, “We make products for those who can’t digest properly … we take away the triggers so people can eat their favorite sauces and salsas and not have symptoms that they usually face.”

Not only are these products safe for those of us with gut issues, but they are also (almost entirely) vegan, with the one exception being their Chicken Soup Base—so, vegans, skip this one and choose any of their dozen other products. 

This innovative brand scored not one, but two wins at Expo East’s NEXTY Awards, snagging the gold for Best New Special Diet Food with their Salsa Verde and Best New Product Supporting a Plant-Based Lifestyle for their Vegan Bolognese Plant-Based Pasta Sauce. 

Fody Foods marks every bottle with their “Easy to Digest, Easy to Love” tagline, and we know that the growing masses of people with FODMAP-related dietary restrictions out there will undoubtedly agree—no more scouring ingredient lists, you know it’s safe with Fody Foods.
