My personal thoughts are that his day to day eating habits are up to him.  That said, I understand you wish to try to accommodate the healthiest options for your friend. I’d say try your best to concoct recipes with the limitations in mind.  I think if it’s an occasional meal, and you use small amounts of offending  foods, you’ll be fine.  Gout is more about a cumulative issue of foods, predisposition, and, if known, medication that controls it.

Yeah, I could do some meatless stuff.  But I am a committed carnivore, and loves his meat, though for years he has been saying people in general, and himself in particular, should eat less meat. So yes, some meatless, but sometimes I need to include meat, definitely.

So I could just post what we eat at home. No meat and especially no shrimp!  Lol.

It’s not hard to avoid meat.

Yeah.  And his favorite food is bacon.  In fact, at a brunch buffet over the weekend he indulged in bacon, sausage, shrimp, various other foods, and then had a flare up.

I think you’re supposed to avoid meat and shellfish, particularly shrimp?  I think prurines are the culprit?

No help from SOAK? Well, I did figure out a breakfast.  I saw from a few reliable sources that cherries are supposed to be good for gout, so I am making Julia Child's clafouti, and thinking of increasing the cherries in the recipe.

This isn’t for me. My friend went to the doctor today and it was confirmed that his foot pain is gout. I often make food for him. This is the hiking friend, so picnic lunches when we hike, dinners with our trivia team, and I usually bring breakfast if I sleep over at their house (which I will do next week). So I am looking for ideas if anyone is familiar with what foods are allowed and what should be limited.
