Subway Oatmeal Raisin Cookie

High histamine

This cookie is high in histamine, mainly from the raisins.

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.

An oat cookie with wheat flour, sugar, oats, eggs, and raisins.

  • Raisins lead — dried fruit like raisins concentrates as it dries and runs high in histamine, which sets the level here.

  • Flour and molasses add a bit — the wheat flour is moderate and the molasses is moderate too, while the oats and eggs are the milder parts.

Since the raisins are baked in, this one cannot be ordered lower.
