I have been on the FODMAP diet for many years now... and I will be honest, it has taken me a long time to finally realise that if I go to someones house... especially a relatives... for dinner I MUST bring my own food.
Just one example if you will, i recently went to my mother in laws... she makes zucchini slice, I ask her the ingredients, she tells me a few things, nothing to worry about.. and then I eat it. Is there onion in here. Well yes there is! And the salad is full of Mango, the other salad is broccoli, raw broccoli.. thank goodness for the day old croissant and ham.. otherwise I would have had to rely solely on the frittata I had thought to bring along :)
SO save yourself from the frustration and possible illness and bring something along. Something to share, which will look generous and not like you are making a pointed remark. People don't really change, so do yourself a favour and take care of yourself.
I also find catching up hard... but breakfast food.. bacon, eggs and toast, always work for me. So maybe do brunch, its fun and hopefully you can enjoy the rest of your day pain free :)
