Boston Market Chocolate Chunk Cookie

High histamine

This cookie is high in histamine, mainly from the chocolate chunks.

Food here is usually assembled to order from components that were prepped earlier in the day, so it tends to be fresher than a drive-through and less fresh than cooking at home. Histamine builds up as protein foods sit, so how long the chicken or beef has been in the warmer matters as much as what is in the bowl. Treat the rating above as a starting point.

Histamine Liberator Gluten Dairy

A classic cookie made from wheat flour, brown sugar, chocolate chunks, margarine, butter, eggs, and molasses.

  • Chocolate chunks — chocolate is a classic histamine liberator, which is the main reason this cookie lands high.

  • Wheat flour, margarine, and molasses — these each add a moderate note on top, keeping the cookie high overall.

A plain, chocolate-free cookie or a simple baked treat would be a lower-histamine choice.
