I live in the US and don't really even try to buy the brand name snacks on the list. I haven't put the effort in. I do eat a PB wrap for lunch along with a Luna bar (and I am glad to have those) but I don't buy the other brands of stuff so much. So please don't feel too left out. I also snack on FF pretzels, baby carrots, bananas, red licorice and even junior mints/peppermint pattties since they don't bother me. If you look around you will find things you can have but it isn't easy for any of us. Getting away from processed wrapped foods is the best thing to do. I noticed in the UK snacky food is as fattening as anywhere! So it is tough, but if you put some time into reading labels you will find stuff. Make it a challenge and it will be like you won when you find things.

"You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!
