IHOP Classic Egg Burritos with Bacon

High histamine

These bacon egg burritos are high, driven by buttermilk, aged cheese blend, diced tomatoes, and cured bacon.

Most of this is cooked to order, which is the best case for histamine. Even so, a restaurant kitchen preps ahead and holds things warm through a service, so freshness varies more than it would at home. The rating above comes from the chain's published ingredients. If a dish is borderline for you, asking how it is prepared tells you more than the menu does.

Gluten Dairy Histamine Liberator

These are flour tortillas filled with eggs, a jack and cheddar blend, tomatoes, peppers, potatoes, and bacon.

  • Jack & cheddar blend and buttermilk — the aged cheese and cultured buttermilk both run high, and the diced tomatoes add a liberator on top.

  • Sodium nitrite and sodium metabisulfite — the cured bacon and the sulfite-treated components sit high as well, so several parts push this up on their own.

The eggs and peppers are milder, so a plainer egg dish without the aged cheese, tomato, and cured meat is a lower-histamine route.
