Is Tim Hortons Raspberry Fill Timbit High in Histamine?

Tim Hortons Raspberry Fill Timbit

Moderate histamine

This raspberry-filled Timbit is moderate in histamine, nudged up by the lemon juice in the filling.

Fast food is cooked in batches and held warm rather than made when you order it, so it is rarely as fresh as something cooked at home. That matters here because histamine builds up as protein foods sit, which means the same item can affect you differently depending on how long it waited.

Gluten Histamine Liberator

This is a small fried dough ball filled with a raspberry jam, and it sits at moderate.

Lemon juice in the filling — the lemon juice concentrate is a citrus liberator and is the highest single ingredient here, while the raspberries themselves sit at moderate.
The dough plays a part — the enriched flour, wheat starch, yeast, and soybean oil are all moderate, so the fried base contributes alongside the filling.

A plain unfilled Timbit skips the lemon-touched jam and lands easier.
