Rice crackers
Plain rice crackers are low histamine, but flavored versions often contain soy sauce or vinegar — worth checking labels.
Plain rice crackers share the same simple profile as rice cakes, but they're more often sold with flavorings.
-
The base is fine — rice itself doesn't carry histamine concerns, and the baking process doesn't change that
-
Flavorings are the variable — soy sauce, tamari, vinegar, and certain spice blends are common additions that can raise the histamine load significantly
Looking for varieties that list rice, oil, and salt as the main ingredients tends to keep things simpler.
