Lectin-Free Georgian Supra Survival Guide

Navigating Georgia’s vibrant multi-course feasts (known as supras) can feel impossible when avoiding lectins—proteins found in grains, legumes, nightshades, and dairy that trigger inflammation. But with the mm food app, you can savor smoky grilled meats, aromatic stews, and nutty sauces without compromise. Here’s how:

Why Supras Challenge Lectin-Free Eaters

Traditional Georgian menus feature staples packed with lectins:

• Khachapuri (cheese-stuffed bread)
• Lobio (kidney bean stew)
• Badrijani (eggplant rolls)
• Pkhali salads with walnuts

Language barriers and hidden ingredients make manual vetting risky. mm food solves this by scanning menus in seconds.

Pre-Feast Prep with MM Food

1. Set Your Profile: Select "Lectin-Free" in dietary filters or customize restrictions (e.g., omit walnuts).
2. Menu Preview: Scan Georgian restaurant menus pre-visit via the app. AI flags unsafe dishes using ingredient-level analysis.
3. Save Favorites: Bookmark safe options like:
   • Mtsvadi: Grilled pork/beef skewers (confirm marinades lack nightshades)
   • Shkmeruli: Garlic chicken (verify no flour sauces)
   • Tolma: Cabbage rolls stuffed with lectin-free fillings (e.g., mushrooms)

Live Tactics During the Supra

• Instant Translation: Point your camera at Georgian text. Watch "ხაჭაპური" become "Khachapuri—contains wheat and cheese (unsafe)" on-screen.
• On-Demand Analysis: Suspect a dish? Snap a photo. AI cross-checks items like:
  • Chakapuli: "Lamb stew—safe if free from tomato paste or beans. Contains tkemali (plum sauce; lectin-free)."
• Staff Collaboration: Use the app’s phrasebook to explain needs: "Ar ginda lek’tini?" ("No lectins?"). Show flagged dishes to servers.

Lectin-Free Wins to Celebrate

Spot these traditionally compatible options:

• Khinkali Soup Dumplings: Skip the dough; enjoy the broth and meat filling.
• Nigvziani Broth Stew: Chicken soup with spinach (no beans/tomatoes).
• Grilled Trout: Herb-stuffed fish (avoid walnut sauces).
