Is Domino's Balsamic Vinaigrette High in Histamine?

Domino's Balsamic Vinaigrette

High histamine

This vinaigrette is high in histamine because it is built on balsamic and red wine vinegar plus lemon.

Fast food is cooked in batches and held warm rather than made when you order it, so it is rarely as fresh as something cooked at home. That matters here because histamine builds up as protein foods sit, which means the same item can affect you differently depending on how long it waited.

DAO Blocker Histamine Liberator

This is a vinegar-forward dressing, and the vinegars are what push it up.

Balsamic and red wine vinegar — both are aged, fermented vinegars that run high, and the red wine vinegar can also block DAO, the enzyme that helps clear histamine.
Lemon juice concentrate — citrus is a classic histamine liberator, so it adds to the concern on top of the vinegars, with soybean oil sitting in the moderate range.

A plain oil-based option on the salad side is a gentler pour than a vinegar dressing.
