Rice-A-Roni

High histamine

This rice and vermicelli mix is high in histamine, driven by yeast extract and tomato powder.

Gluten Dairy

It is rice and vermicelli with a seasoning of onion, garlic, yeast extract, tomato powder, and MSG.

  • Yeast extract and tomato powder — yeast extract is a concentrated high-histamine flavoring, and tomato is a classic liberator, so either one alone lifts the whole box.

  • Onion and garlic powder — these are moderate and add to the load, while the rice and vermicelli stay milder.

With both the yeast extract and tomato in the mix, there is no clean way to bring this one down.
