Panera Bread Strawberry Banana Smoothie
This smoothie is high in histamine from strawberry puree and greek yogurt.
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 is a strawberry puree fruit blend with banana and whole milk plain greek yogurt, and several parts run high.
-
Strawberry puree and banana — strawberry and banana are classic histamine liberators, so the puree blend lands high and the banana keeps it there.
-
Whole milk greek yogurt — yogurt is cultured, and that fermentation makes it high, adding to the fruit side.
There is no clean swap that leaves this recognizable, so the iced green tea is a much lower-histamine cold pick.
