All nut spreads are very similar, whether peanut, almond, sunflower, sesame... They are high in fat but a smear on fat free toast or tortilla or apples and graham crackers (favorite for hiking) is safe. Make sure it is just a bit; do the math if necessary to figure out how much you can have. By increasing the non fat calories (like your toast) you can somewhat increase the fat and keep the fat percentage acceptable. But always eat a SF non fat carby thing with fatty things like nut butters.

"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!
