Crackers (wheat)
Serving sizes
Crackers (wheat) changes rating with portion size. These are the amounts tested in the literature behind our ratings.
- About 4 crackers (35g)
- Larger portions
- Much larger portions
Wheat crackers are Low FODMAP at about 4 crackers (35g), with Fructans building at larger portions.
- Plain wheat crackers are low at about 4 crackers (35g).
- Fructans from the wheat flour build as you nibble, so larger portions are moderate and much larger portions are high.
- Seeds, toppings and other added ingredients can shift the picture.
Count out your crackers rather than eating from the box, or reach for rice or corn crackers when you want more.
