Are Snow peas and sugar snap peas Low FODMAP?

High FODMAP

Avoid during elimination. Save for a structured reintroduction challenge.

Safe serving

Snow peas 5 pods; sugar snaps none

FODMAP group responsible

  • Fructans — Oligosaccharides. Wheat, onion, garlic. The most common trigger and the hardest to avoid.
  • Mannitol — Polyols. Cauliflower, mushrooms, celery, sweet potato.

Why

Snow peas are low FODMAP at about five pods, which is a garnish rather than a serving. Sugar snap peas are higher again and are best treated as unavailable during elimination.

This entry is compiled from published Monash-aligned guidance rather than our own laboratory testing, and thresholds are revised as new data arrives. For the elimination phase the Monash app is the authority. See the full food list for how the categories fit together, orcheck another food.
