I mean small like I sneeze and a 20 dollar bill appears in my hand or something like that. Not classic answers like flying or super strength.

God I feel this. I'm probably not nearly as bad, but I'd like to not have to carefully analyze what I eat anymore

    ~~What in the pseudoscience is this crap? Avoid garlic entirely, but no limit on the foi gras? ~~

    Edit: FODMAP is not a ‘diet’ in the traditional sense, it’s a diet tailored to avoid triggering flare ups of medical conditions such as IBS. Wish the article had been more clear for those without knowledge of what FODMAP is.

    FODMAPs are pretty well understood. There aren't any in meat.

    I know this is ancient history at this point, but I wanted to circle back.

    I was not familiar with FODMAPs at all before reading the article. And since the article starts by calling it a ‘diet’ I made what I thought was the reasonable assumption that it was a traditional diet.

    After you responded I looked it up more generally and now understand that it’s less of a traditional ‘diet’ and instead used to help prevent some medical conditions from flaring up.

    That’s on me for not doing full research, and on the article for assuming everyone knows what FODMAPs are and why they are so important to some people.

    Sorry for my ignorance.
