Is toum low FODMAP?

No — Toum is high FODMAP and is a common trigger for IBS symptoms in typical servings.

Toum is whipped raw garlic, oil, lemon and salt, roughly a fifth garlic by weight, so a tablespoon carries close to a whole clove's worth of Fructans. The infused-oil loophole does not apply here because the garlic solids stay in the emulsion; garlic-infused oil beaten into a plain mayonnaise base is the flavour-alike.
