Safe and Savory: Enjoying Filipino Adobo with Urticaria Using the MM Food App

Filipino Adobo, with its tangy vinegar-soy sauce base and aromatic garlic notes, is a beloved national dish. But for those managing urticaria (hives), hidden ingredients like soy, spices, or preservatives can trigger reactions. The MM Food app simplifies dining safety by translating menus and analyzing dishes for allergens—so you can savor Adobo worry-free.

How the MM Food App Makes Adobo Accessible

1. Instant Menu Translation: Confused by Tagalog menu terms? The app translates ingredients into your preferred language, clarifying components like toyo (soy sauce) or suka (vinegar).
2. Urticaria-Specific Filtering: Input your dietary restrictions (e.g., histamine-rich foods, soy, or MSG). The app cross-checks Adobo recipes, flagging unsafe ingredients and suggesting modifications.
3. Customizable Alerts: Add personal triggers (e.g., black pepper or specific additives) to receive tailored recommendations for safer Adobo variations.

Urticaria-Friendly Adobo Tweaks to Try

• Substitute soy sauce with coconut aminos for a soy-free option.
• Use apple cider vinegar instead of distilled vinegar if sensitive to preservatives.
• Request garlic-free or reduced-black-pepper versions at restaurants using the app’s pre-translated dietary request feature.

With MM Food, enjoying Filipino Adobo becomes a stress-free experience—one flavorful bite at a time.
