Vegetable Pickles / Relish and IBS: what to know
For IBS meal notes, include relish spread inside a sandwich or burger as well as any extra spooned alongside it. A heaped serving spoon can be hard to compare with the listed weights. Record the product or recipe, especially when switching between vegetable and corn relish.
Gut-friendly ways to eat vegetable pickles / relish
Weigh relish into a small dish before adding it to bread, a burger or a snack plate. Divide the amount used across the portions eaten and check the accompaniments separately. If blending relish into mayonnaise or another dressing, keep track of the original relish amount instead of measuring only the final mixture.
