Noodles & Company Granulated Peanuts
These dry-roasted peanuts are high in histamine and act as a histamine liberator.
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.
This topping is simply dry-roasted granulated peanuts.
-
Granulated peanuts — peanuts are a classic histamine liberator, meaning they can prompt the body to release its own histamine, which is why they land high.
-
A single-ingredient topping — there is nothing else here to soften it, so if peanuts are a trigger for you, this sprinkle carries the high rating on its own.
Leaving the peanuts off is the direct way to keep a bowl lower.
