Domino's BBQ Sauce
BBQ sauce is high, driven by tomato paste, beef stock, and yeast extract.
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.
This BBQ sauce is built on tomato paste, brown sugar, vinegar, mustard, molasses, beef stock, and yeast extract.
-
Tomato paste — tomato is a classic histamine liberator, and concentrated as a paste it sits firmly high.
-
Beef stock and yeast extract — both are high, and the vinegar, mustard, and molasses add moderate notes on top.
If you want a dip, the standard pizza cheese is a far lower-histamine choice on the same menu.
