I am in the same boat for the random symptoms – there have been soooo many times that I've eaten pizza, fast food burgers, chicken wings, steak, alcohol, and so many other "forbidden" foods and have had NO problem whatsoever. It's so frustrating because I've cut all of these foods out of my diet and I'm still averaging an attack once every 10 days or so. I'm feeling better in between those attacks, but still.
I'm not sure about the alcohol thing. I seemed to be able to tolerate most alcohol just fine (with the exception of red wine and certain white wines). I snuck in a few drinks over the Christmas holidays with no ill effects.
This diet isn't a one-size-fits-all – you may need to so some experimenting to see what works for you. Keeping a food/symptom journal will help with this (this is something I need to do myself!)

IBS-A since age 12, and fructose sensitive; with the exception of my pregnancy, have been following Heather's diet since Nov. 19, 2007.
Taking 12g of Acacia per day. Relatively stable since March 2008!
