Noodles & Company Cheesy Garlic Bread
This garlic bread is high in histamine from marinara and parmesan on a baguette.
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 baguette topped with marinara, parmesan, and a creamy garlic sauce, and the tomato and cheese push it high.
-
Marinara and aged parmesan — marinara sauce is a tomato-based liberator and high, while parmesan is aged and high, the two main drivers here.
-
The bread and garlic — the baguette is a moderate wheat base, and the butter and garlic sauce are milder than the tomato and cheese on top.
The cheese and marinara are what set the level, so a plainer bread side is the calmer pick.
