Anyone here ever have any problems with roasted red pepper hummus?
I honestly love it, it makes hummus taste so much better.

I've been able to eat it while in remission but I'm afraid to eat it while in a flare currently.
Is anyone else able to have it while in a flare?

Specifically I have this one:

From Sabra.

No problems here. Eat lots of hummus and enjoy that kind.

Flaring or not flaring this would cause problems for me due to the fiber from the beans used to make the hummus plus my gut does not like bell peppers or tomatoes. I used to looove hummus with pita. Things have changed.

Strangely (in remission) my gut likes curry dishes (chicken with veggies) made with powdered hot pepper and green curry paste along with coconut milk cream (homemade , haven't tried restaurants). I even tried some fresh jalapeño diced very small and no problems. I would NOT rec. this in a flare however haha.

Hummus gives me insanely smelly gas if I eat too much of it.

only when I eat a whole pint of it with a whole bag of tortilla chips without leaving the couch ;-)

I'm with Soy on this one..lol..that is in eating Hummus. I have it daily, but ONLY the classic one with no other flavouring in it (Sabra).
I've limited myself to 2 of the personal size ones (from Costco) and I have it with rice crackers or the pretzel crisps.

Problems? well, it's extra fibre and I definitely get some gas from it about 6 hours later. But, it's great for bms the next day....woohoo.

I loathe any of the other ones that are flavoured...waaaaaaay too much garlic in them.

If you like it, have it. Limit to a time of the day where it won't cause you too much discomfort if you're out and about, etc.

Not all prepared hummus is created equal....even the ones with no extras in them.

I ate/eat that exact brand and flavor and never noticed any extra issues or problems from it (even when flaring).

The word Pepper alone makes it out of bounds for me. I used to love Peppers, especially in the summer grilling them on Kabobs, boy those were the days. Now the thought of a Pepper makes me want to check on the TP supply in the bathroom.

@ Sugarcrave, Maybe, you could try it but in a small quantity.

If you can make your own it is so easy and you'll realy know what is in your mix.
