The matching detail panels show mannitol changing from green at 40 g to amber at 61 g and red at 75 g. Fructose, lactose, sorbitol, GOS and fructans stay green. There is no household measure attached to 61 g, so use the stated weight rather than converting it into a guessed fraction of a cup.

Slippery Jack / Sticky Bun Mushroom (Raw) and IBS: what to know

For a mushroom side dish, weigh the slippery jack amount you expect to eat before cooking and keep the sauce ingredients separate in your notes. Red pine / saffron milk cap also has a mannitol limitation, but its smaller green reference is different. The same FODMAP group does not imply the same portion for each variety.

Gut-friendly ways to eat slippery jack / sticky bun mushroom (raw)

Choose correctly labelled mushrooms from a food supplier and follow their preparation instructions. Cut the measured amount as needed for the dish and keep portions consistent when sharing a recipe. The app labels this entry raw, so its values do not establish a cooked-weight allowance or a result for pickled, dried or mixed slippery jack products.
