SCD-Friendly Dining in Spanish Tapas Bars Made Simple
Spanish tapas bars captivate with vibrant flavors and communal dining, but navigating them on the Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD) can feel overwhelming. Hidden sugars in sauces, shared fryers, and complex seasonings threaten to derail your dietary efforts. The mm food app transforms this challenge into a stress-free experience, letting you savor Spain’s culinary culture without compromising your health.
Why SCD and Tapas Don’t Always Mix
Traditional tapas harbor common SCD pitfalls:
- Sauces thickened with flour (like alioli or romesco)
- Sugary marinades in meats (chorizo, albóndigas)
- Cross-contamination in shared oil for frying
- Hidden additives in cured meats and pickled items
How mm food App Solves Your Tapas Dilemma
Instant Menu Translation
Point your camera at any Spanish menu—mm food translates it instantly to your language. Stop guessing what "escabeche" or "salmorejo" contains.
AI-Powered SCD Filter
Enter your SCD restrictions once. Our AI scans dishes for banned ingredients like grains, lactose, sugars, and starches. It flags unsafe items and highlights compliant options with a color-coded system.
