Mushrooms have a mix of IF and SF, so if eaten carefully with a good SF base, they should be fine. Shiitakes and creminis are especially good for you, and I've found cooking with creminis give the dish a meatier flavor, which is nice.

Yep, avocado is high in fat -- how do you usually eat it? I usually have 1/8 - 1/4 of an avocado in a sandwich or taco without any problems.

I think both of these foods are important to include in your diet, if you can do so safely.

so sauteeying (sp?) mushrooms in some pam and serving it over white rice should be good. right?

Yes, I've never had a problem with them, and rice is a good, bland base. Usually, I cook my mushrooms in some fat free or low-fat vegetable broth -- it gives them some extra flavor. I've also cooked shiitakes in a teriyaki sauce (recipe from the index), but I'm not sure if the ingredients in the sauce are things you're currently avoiding due to fructose malabsorption.

You're right that list seems so restrictive. For people with fructose malabsorbtion or intolerance, what are the usual symptoms? I have my IBS pretty much under control...it's the gas/bloat that I'm still "cause" searching!

I am surrounded by food all day long. I have been giving candy out to my patients basically all day looooong. What can be eaten in place of a snickers bar? I am dying for some chocolate!!

That's when you have to steel yourself and remember that the Snickers will make you sick. I'm not familiar with the fructose malabsorption diet, but think of what a Snickers bar is - it sure isn't *food* - it's sugar and bad fats and junk. Remember that what you're choosing to put into your body is *good* for your body, feeds your body and gives it what it needs. A Snickers may feel good in your mouth, but that's nothing compared to the damage it does everywhere else. Eventually you'll get in the mindset of this, and food that does good things to your body will be delicious, and food that's bad for you won't. It takes time, but keep your goals in mind. Take a few deep breaths, and remember what you really want, which is to not be sick. I bet you want that more than chocolate. And if not, if really truly not? Then you make the choice.
