Noodles & Company Asian Seasoning

High histamine

This seasoning blend runs high in histamine, mostly from the torula yeast.

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.

A dry blend of salt, sesame seeds, garlic, sugar, spices, paprika, and chili pepper with torula yeast.

  • Torula yeast leads it — torula yeast is a high-histamine ingredient, and it is the main reason this blend lands high.

  • Paprika and chili add to it — both the paprika and chili pepper sit at moderate, so they nudge the overall level up alongside the yeast.

If you want to keep things lower, ask for your dish plain without this seasoning.
