Is Boston Market Creamed Spinach High in Histamine?

Boston Market Creamed Spinach

High histamine

This creamed spinach is high, driven by the spinach itself and the parmesan cheese.

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.

Dairy

It's spinach cooked down in a creamy base of neufchatel cheese, parmesan, butter, and onions.

Spinach — spinach is a classic histamine liberator, and it stays that way cooked, so it's a core reason this runs high.
Parmesan cheese — parmesan is aged and runs high, with the neufchatel adding a moderate note on top, while the butter and onions are milder.

A plain non-leafy vegetable side would land much lower than this.
