Curry Paste


Recommended Posts

I'll start my first whole30 soon and I'm not sure if I understood it right. I thought I'm not allowed to eat sugar at all, but on one website a lady uses curry paste in her recipe. The label says it contains 1g of sugar. The ingredients are: spices (including red chili), garlic, lemongrass, galangal (Thai ginger), salt, challot, coriander root + kaffir lime leaf.

The ingredients are all compliant but the 1g sugar confuses me. Can I eat curry paste?

Yes, this would be compliant. You're looking for sugar (or other sweetener) actually listed as an ingredient -- that would not be compliant.

 

Many, many foods have naturally occurring sugars -- all fruits, most vegetables, some nuts and meats even -- and those sugars will show up in the nutrition facts.
