Good to know

Japanese-style rice crackers — soy-sauce-glazed (senbei), seaweed-wrapped, or wasabi-flavoured — almost always carry onion and/or garlic powder in the soy seasoning, plus mirin or HFCS for shine. One handful crosses the fructan cutoff.

Where these numbers come from

• Derivation note: Soy-sauce-coated rice crackers list onion/garlic powder among the top ingredients of the seasoning; mirin and HFCS often add fructose. Fructan dose above Varney 2017 cutoff at one handful.
• Peer-reviewed paper: Varney J et al. (2017) FODMAPs: food composition, defining cutoff values and international application. J Gastroenterol Hepatol 32(S1):53–61.

Phase derives serving thresholds from published research and food-composition data so every number is auditable.
