Hi, and welcome!!

Good for you for trying to stay away from red meat!!

Yes, as Casey said, ham is pork and pork is red meat. As Heather explains, the problem is that the size of the protein molecule in red meat is much larger than chicken and fish, so that even the very lean cuts of pork still are IBS triggers. So even if the baked ham is labeled 99% fat free, that makes it good for people watching their weight but still not safe for us. I know, it's not fair, is it?!
