Indeed you are getting obsessive -- your question is a good one

A fructan is composed of a chain of fructose molecules joined together. Inulin and FOS found in Jerusalem artichokes and chicory are fructans. They are also used as soluble fiber supplement that Heather warns can cause some IBSer problems. It is recommended that individuals with fructose malabsorption reduce the amount of wheat and other fructan containing foods they eat.

Most people don't have problems eating reasonable amount of fructans e.g. a couple of slices of bread. However, some people can experience bloating and gas from eating too much. How much is too much? The answer to this question has to be figured out by each person.
