Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Newbie with a few questions

First I want to say hello and I'm so glad to have found this place.
I have been lucky in comparison to what I have been reading here. I suffered with IBS-D on a pretty infrequent occurance. But lately it has been much more often and the past month has been cronic. Just by following the advice on the website I have completely eliminated the pain and cramping for the past 3 days. That's such a relief to me.
I ordered the starter kit with both books and the Acacia. I also ordered the Peppermint caps.
One of my questions though I am sure it will be answered when the books get here, but for now I'm still not sure what to eat. One of the things I have been doing is taking a can of Chicken noodle soup and adding a bunch of cooked white rice to it.
I am wondering what condiments are safe. For instance, Ketchup, spaghetti sauce, garlic salt... Eating for breaking the cycle seems to be working, but is incredibly bland and I'm hoping to add some flavor to the noodles, potatos ...etc.
Thanks in advance.
