Pretzels and gout: which to pick, which to skip
Seasoned pretzels can carry yeast extract in the coating — so we read each label. We read the full ingredient list of 4 pretzels and scored each for gout specifically: 3 rate as a pick, 1 to limit or skip, and 2 carry a hidden trigger (HFCS, fructose or yeast extract) we flag by position.
