Who are Slightly Different Foods?
Slightly Different Foods have a simple but significant mission – to provide a range of delicious everyday food products that can be enjoyed by anyone, including those following a low FODMAP diet. Founder Sonia Fox was diagnosed with IBS herself in 2014 and wanted to make life easier for fellow IBS sufferers who were also struggling to find low FODMAP options at the supermarket.
Slightly Different Foods offer a range of artisanal products – including curry pastes, pasta sauces, Mexican chillies and stir-in sauces. Recently, they have introduced a zesty orange, ginger & chilli salad dressing to the range.
Why are typical salad dressings high in FODMAPs?
If you take a look at the ingredients list of a classic salad dressing at the supermarket, you’ll find that foods such as onion, cream and milk are often at the top. These are high FODMAP ingredients that people with IBS aim to avoid. Additionally, even if the ingredients are seemingly low FODMAP, together they may stack to create a high FODMAP product overall.
Since these factors render most store-bought salad dressings off limits, the only safe option is to make dressings from scratch. We all know that this isn’t always possible, so Slightly Different offer a tasty, convenient alternative! You can rest assured that these dressings have undergone a rigorous testing process to be certified as FODMAP Friendly.
