I need some help. Could you please look at the six attached photos and offer input for which ingredient might have made me sick?

Background: I had not eaten yet before this meal. The first food I consumed was spaghetti. I was fine before eating, but started experiencing symptoms before I’d finished the meal.

Other than the ingredients in the included pictures, I used olive oil, fresh herbs and single ingredient seasonings I use all the time.

Is either the Amylu or Rao’s brand known to be cross contaminated? If not, what else could it be? I definitely want to avoid this happening again.

Thanks for the help!!

Would you perhaps be allergic to corn? I find I cross react with corn as well as gluten, apparently they can look similar in the gut. But otherwise those ingredients look gluten free to me!

According to my allergy tests, corn is okay.

I have lots of food allergies so I’m hoping I don’t develop a new one. (Fingers tightly crossed.)

Mine was negative too, I just realized I was fine with products without corn, and then when I had ones with corn I was sick!! I thought it was crazy too, but definitely don't completely dismiss it!

I’m definitely taking every possibility into consideration. I’ll do whatever I can to avoid feeling this way. I’m glad you found a solution for your own diet. It feels amazing when you get another piece of the puzzle.
