How much can I eat?
A typical serving is about 85 g, which delivers 49 mg of purines, or about 12% of a ~400 mg working daily target.
Even a large serving stays well within a ~400 mg working daily purine target.
These are plant purines, which research links far more weakly to flares: the 49 mg here counts as roughly 15 mg toward your gout risk.

Why grade A
Low risk in a typical serving. A great everyday choice for a gout-friendly diet.
Per 100 g (for comparison)
Moderate for gout (50–150 mg/100g).
Low for gout (< 3 g/100g).
Fructose here is a category-level estimate, not a direct measurement for this food.
Processing: NOVA 1 of 4 (unprocessed or minimally processed). How processing affects the grade.
These are plant purines. Research links purines from vegetables, legumes, and mushrooms far more weakly to gout flares than purines from meat and seafood, so the per-100g figure overstates the real risk here.
