Navigating MCAS: Safe Peruvian Ceviche Choices with mm food

Peruvian ceviche bursts with vibrant flavors—crisp fish, zesty citrus, and aromatic spices. But for individuals with Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS), hidden ingredients like onions, aged seafood, and citrus marinades can trigger reactions. Traditional ceviche often includes high-histamine fish, peppers, and vinegars, making menu navigation a minefield.

Here’s how mm food transforms your dining experience:

  1. Instant Menu Translation: Confused by Spanish terms like "leche de tigre" or "ají limo"? Scan the menu with mm food to see ingredients translated clearly into your native language.
  2. MCAS-Smart Screening: Input your restrictions (e.g., low-histamine, no nightshades, citrus-free). Our AI cross-checks each dish, flagging ceviche containing triggers like onions, fermented sauces, or less-fresh seafood.
  3. Customized Safe Picks: We’ll suggest safer alternatives—e.g., "Ceviche de Corvina (hold onions, substitute lime with lemon)" or "Tiradito with olive oil instead of chili paste."
  4. Empowered Ordering: Get real-time modification tips to request kitchens, such as using fresh-caught fish or avocado instead of tomatoes.

Traveling in Peru? Try these MCAS-friendly tweaks:

  • Opt for white-flesh fish (like sole or cod) instead of tuna or mackerel.
  • Request lemon instead of lime for lower acidity.
  • Skip nightshades (tomatoes, peppers) and onions—replace with cucumber or jicama.
