    Almost all raw vegetables. :'( I love raw vegetables but they seriously bloat me and I am prone to small bowel obstructions so my doctor banned them from my diet.

    Broccoli. I can add just a bit of whatever sauce and eat cooked broccoli as a meal. My stomach doesn't like that so much..

    Apples. They just give me horrible bloat and gas if I eat more than one a day. Pears as well, though they're not as bad.

    Just an FYI all 3 of those foods are high in fructose. You may want to research other foods that are high in fructose to see if they also give you problems.

    Broccoli also can be high in fructans.

    Apples and pears are also high in sorbitol.

    Ice cream. Large quantities of dairy in general. Lactose intolerant.

    I can handle small doses of milk, dairy-based proteins, yogurt, cheese in normal serving sizes...

    But ice cream....milkshakes....ooomph.

    Quest bars :disappointed: I was so excited when I found them, right before they changed the recipe. New recipe is just the wrong combination of supplemental fiber + sugar alcohol for me. So much pain.

    Me too! I used to eat at least 1 a day. Now Ihave twoleft in my cupboard and I want to eat them but don’t think it’s worth the discomfort I will have for the next 2 days.

    Any cruciferous vegetable. i just have to look at broccoli or cauliflower or brussel sprouts or whatever and BLOAT. Pity, I like them. I also tend to bloat if I eat eggplant too regularly - like more than once in a row.

    Other than that, I also can't eat protein bars - any of them - because both the whey and the artificial sweetners = bloat. I don't particularly love them anyway though, so that's not a big deal for me.

    If I eat lots of milk-based stuff regularly it also starts to play with my innards. A bit lactose intolerant. I like cheese and yoghurt and things though. I still eat them.

    And deep fried foods, particularly if the oil is old and crusty - BLOAT.

    oh - and I forgot one more thing - if I eat too much fat for too long, I get constipated.

    Milk. I can eat yogurt, ice cream, and cheese but straight milk I'm sensitive to.

    Same. Weird, right?

    Also, now I just want a huge bag of popcorn. :D

    Ice cream.. but only from places like DQ.. store bought is fine, but if I have a Blizzard (which I love!) my stomach gets very upset with me.

    This thread is making me soooo glad to have the digestive system of a true genetic peasant!

    (Just in to brag and gloat, I guess. ;) ).

    The only thing I can think of is that if I eat something with enough secret meat in in (lots of chicken broth in something strongly-flavored enough to cover the flavor, say), I'll get mild intestinal distress (that's usually how I figure out I ate it by accident). But that's just about the gut adaptation after 45 years of vegetarianism, nothing really profound; if I phased meat back in, I'm sure I'd be fine after a couple of weeks.

    Depending on the degree of lactose intolerance or sensitivity someone has, it's pretty common that they can eat other dairy products even if they can't have milk. This is because some dairy products are made using processes that either reduce their lactose content, or make them easier to digest. https://med.virginia.edu/ginutrition/wp-content/uploads/sites/199/2014/04/Lactose_Content_of_Common_Foods-11-2017.pdf

    Shellfish.
    I used to be able to eat them, then I started getting torrential diarrhoea after eating them, which over time progressed to tingling lips. Haven’t dared risk it since as don’t fancy full-blown anaphylaxis!

    oatmeal, legumes, nuts, too many quest/one bars (fiber)...not worth the unpredictable amount of gas & bloating
    Of course quantity matters

    Milk. :'( And over easy eggs. I LOVE eggs and I have no issues with scrambled, HB or omelets, but the runny yolk gets me every time. Sad.

    This. In moderation, I can eat most of the others with only minor to no issues. Too much and ouch. But milk? Oh I want just a tiny bit? Bring on the pain.

    Complete Cookies (Lenny & Larry's)

    It's that damn chicory root, I tell ya.

    All that Inulin/FOS/Chicory Root they add to foods is just a bad idea IMO. It's a giant cookie... don't get cute with it.

    I forgot about Lenny and Larry’s. I used to eat them all the time. Then it got to where I could just see one on a store shelf and start feeling bloated. I miss them.

    This thread is turning into a weird kind of very pleasant therapy for me lol. I made it out of frustration over rice and after reading everyone's replies I'm beginning to feel pretty grateful for everything I can eat with no issues.

    Thanks people :)
