Because sometimes you just want something nice with your cup of tea.
One of the things I remember about starting a low-FODMAP diet was how much more complicated food shopping suddenly became.
Before, I could wander around the supermarket, spot something I fancied and pop it in my basket without giving it much thought.
Then, suddenly, I was reading the back of absolutely everything.
I'd find something that looked promising, only to discover onion powder, garlic or another ingredient I was trying to avoid. Honestly, why does onion powder need to be in so many things?!
And sometimes, after all that label-reading, I'd come home with the same handful of foods I'd been buying for weeks.
If you've experienced that too, you'll know how frustrating it can be.
It's one of the reasons I started sharing supermarket finds on the Bakerbee blog. Following a low-FODMAP diet can feel restrictive enough without having to spend ages searching for a packet of biscuits.
So I've been having another look around the supermarket shelves, and I've found ten snacks that I thought were worth sharing.
Some are familiar favourites, others are from the free-from aisle, and a few might surprise you.
Before we dive in: These are products with promising ingredient lists, not necessarily products confirmed to be low-FODMAP. I've explained where certification evidence exists, and serving sizes still matter. The ingredient research was carried out in October 2026, so please check the current packaging.
Let's start with the savoury snacks
1. Hula Hoops Original
Who doesn't love a Hula Hoop?
One of the things I've learnt from following a low-FODMAP diet is that it's worth looking at ordinary supermarket products rather than automatically heading for the free-from aisle.
Hula Hoops Original are a good example.
When I checked the ingredients, I found potato ingredients, sunflower oil, rice flour, maize flour and salt, without any listed onion or garlic.
The important thing is to stick with Original, because the different flavours don't necessarily have the same ingredients.
2. Pom-Bear Original
Another familiar snack!
I think it's easy to assume that following a specialist diet means you need to buy specialist food, but that's not always the case.
The Original Pom-Bear recipe I checked included potato and maize ingredients, sunflower oil, salt and yeast extract, without listed onion or garlic.
They're another product worth investigating if you fancy something crunchy.
Just be careful with the other flavours, as the ingredient lists can be different.
3. KETTLE Lightly Salted Potato Chips
Sometimes the simplest things are the nicest.
The KETTLE Lightly Salted crisps caught my attention because the ingredients were so straightforward: potatoes, vegetable oils and sea salt.
That's one of the things I now look for when shopping. A shorter ingredient list can make it easier to see what you're dealing with, although it doesn't automatically mean a product is low-FODMAP.
And, as tempting as the other flavours might be, each one needs checking separately.

4. Propercorn Lightly Sea Salted Popcorn
I love the idea of having a few easy snacks in the cupboard for those evenings when you just want to curl up on the sofa and watch something good.
Propercorn Lightly Sea Salted is another product with a simple ingredient list.
The version I researched contained wholegrain corn, rapeseed oil and sea salt.
Of course, popcorn is one of those foods where portion sizes matter, so it's worth checking the current guidance before filling an enormous bowl!

5. Nairn's Gluten Free Rosemary & Sea Salt Flatbreads
Sometimes you want something a little more substantial than crisps.
These rosemary and sea salt flatbreads looked interesting because you could pair them with a suitable topping and make a little snack out of them.
The recipe I checked included gluten-free oats, rosemary, sea salt and other baking ingredients, without listed onion or garlic.
One thing worth remembering is that gluten-free doesn't automatically mean low-FODMAP. Oats can also be portion-sensitive, so these need a little more checking.

And now for the sweet treats...
As you might expect from someone who runs a bakery, I couldn't write a snack guide without talking about biscuits and chocolate.
One of the things I found difficult when I first changed my diet was feeling as though everyday treats suddenly required so much thought.
Sometimes you don't want to make something from scratch. You just want to open a packet of biscuits and put the kettle on.
6. Sainsbury's Free From Ginger Crunch Cookies
There's something lovely about a ginger biscuit with a cup of tea.
These Sainsbury's biscuits looked promising when I checked their ingredients.
They contained oat flour, oats, candied stem ginger and tapioca starch, amongst other ingredients, without listed onion, garlic or unspecified flavourings.
They haven't been confirmed as low-FODMAP in a particular serving, but they're an interesting one to investigate.

7. Tesco Free From Ginger Cookies
If Tesco is your usual supermarket, they also have a ginger biscuit worth looking at.
Their Free From Ginger Cookies contained oat flour, crystallised ginger, oats, tapioca starch and ginger powder in the recipe I researched.
I always think it's helpful to have options from different supermarkets. It's frustrating enough having to check everything without needing to visit three shops to find something you fancy.
These are a different recipe from the Sainsbury's biscuits, so they need their own portion assessment.
Availability note: Tesco listed these cookies as out of stock when checked on 2 November 2026. Availability may vary.

8. M&S Made Without Shortbread Rounds
Shortbread is one of those simple treats that feels a little bit special.
These M&S Made Without Shortbread Rounds caught my eye because the recipe was fairly straightforward: butter, rice flour, sugar, cornflour, maize flour, salt and xanthan gum.
They contain milk, which brings me to something else I found confusing when I first started learning about FODMAPs.
Low-FODMAP isn't the same as dairy-free or gluten-free.
It's about particular carbohydrates and the amounts you eat, rather than simply cutting out entire food groups.
These shortbread rounds haven't been confirmed as low-FODMAP in a tested serving, but they're worth a closer look.

9. Lindt Excellence 70% Cocoa Dark Chocolate
Well, I was hardly going to leave chocolate off the list, was I?
Chocolate is a fairly important part of life at Bakerbee!
The Lindt Excellence 70% bar I researched contained cocoa mass, sugar, cocoa butter and vanilla.
Dark chocolate can fit into a low-FODMAP diet in appropriate portions, although that doesn't mean you can automatically eat an entire bar.
It's another reminder that the amount of something can be just as important as the ingredients.

10. Schär Digestive Biscuits
And finally, a biscuit with a little more evidence behind it.
Schär includes its Digestive Biscuits in its UK low-FODMAP certification information.
That's useful because there's a big difference between looking at an ingredient list and having the finished product assessed under a certification programme.
You still need to check the certified serving size, though. I haven't confirmed the current number of biscuits for the matching UK product, so I'd recommend checking the packaging or Monash FODMAP app.
A few things I've learnt along the way
If there's one thing following a low-FODMAP diet has taught me, it's that food shopping doesn't have to be quite as limiting as it first feels.
It can take time to work out what suits you, and there can be a lot of trial and error.
I've also learnt not to assume that something is suitable just because it says gluten-free, or that something is unsuitable simply because it contains dairy.
These days, I think it's much more helpful to understand ingredients, check portions and remember that everyone's tolerance is different.
And I still find it useful to discover new supermarket products, especially the ordinary everyday things that are easy to overlook.
For the products in this article, most have only had their ingredients screened. That isn't the same as confirming a safe low-FODMAP serving, so do use reliable guidance such as the Monash FODMAP app, particularly during the elimination phase.
Why I love sharing these little finds
Bakerbee Bakery started because of my own experience of following a low-FODMAP diet and my love of baking.
I know how frustrating it can be when food starts to feel complicated, particularly when you're trying to find something nice to eat rather than just another list of things to avoid.
That's why I enjoy sharing these supermarket finds alongside my baking.
I'm always interested in discovering new products, and hopefully this list gives you a few ideas for your next shopping trip.
If you'd like more ideas, you can read my earlier post, A Few of My Favourite Supermarket Low FODMAP Items.
And if you're new to Bakerbee, do have a look around the bakery. I specialise in handmade brownies and cookies, inspired by my love of baking and my own dietary experiences.
My baked products haven't been independently verified as low-FODMAP.
Happy snacking!
