Salad, all fruit apart from ripe bananas and pureed apple, dried fruit, nuts, broccoli, cauliflower, brussel sprouts, lentils, hummus, beans... i think that's it. Depressing. Soy, but it's bearable unlike the other stuff.

Soy is one of those foods that it depends on the individual. I started out using it a lot and had horrible results. Cut it out for awhile, and use it sparingly now. I use rice products instead.

I get gas from eggs (even whites) and chicken (even white meat), beans, spices, onions, garlic, all dairy (highly lactose intolerant), all meat except fish, nuts. Anything at all tight on my stomach gives me gas within 5 minutes. Lying on my stomach more than a few minutes gives me gas. Being cramped in a position that is restrictive, like an airplane seat, gives me gas if I can't stretch.

On average, the USDA database says that honeydew melons contain about 2 grams of fructose per 100 grams while cantaloupe contains about 3 grams per 100 grams (about 35% more). However, on average both melons have about 0.3 grams more fructose than glucose. Generally speaking both melons should have the same effect if you are a fructose malabsorber.
However, the values in the USDA database are averages and different varieties could well have quite different amounts of these sugars. Also the ripeness of the fruit and the amount you eat will also be a big determining factor in the actual amount of excess fructose for these two types of melon. So I am not sure there is a clear answer to your question.
The question Syl I have, are cantaloupe and honeydew melons safe, for you and IBSers in general?
I've searched here and found many conflicting posts, some arguing that melons are trouble due to IF.
I dunno but when I see cantaloupe or honey dew slices, all I see is mushy slices, I don't see skin hence I thought fine?

Soy is highly allergenic, and susceptible people can become quite intolerant of it. This happened to my sister; she was eating it ALL the time and developed a horrible soy allergy! Now she can't even touch the stuff. I don't know if it bothers me or not (don't think so) but try to just eat it every 3-4 days so I don't develop any problems, as I am a vegetarian and have been for 15 years. But I don't want to rely on it too heavily!
