Cherry Tomato

Low FODMAP

Serving sizes

Cherry Tomato changes rating with portion size. These are the amounts tested in the literature behind our ratings.

  • About 3 tomatoes (45g) Low
  • Larger portions Moderate
  • Much larger portions High

Cherry tomatoes are Low FODMAP at 3 tomatoes (45g), and a full handful moves into moderate and high from Excess Fructose.

  • Cherry tomatoes are low at 3 tomatoes (45g). Excess Fructose adds up fast after that, moderate at 4 and high at 5, so count them rather than pouring from the carton.
  • They add color and sweetness to salads, pasta and roasting trays in small numbers.

Halve 3 cherry tomatoes over pasta with garlic-infused oil, or roast a few alongside other low FODMAP vegetables.
