I learned at an IBD conference that Cocoanut Macaroon cookies are good too...but mostly the Archway brand because of the amount of cocoanut that is in them.  Eat like 2-3 of them a day they said and they find this helps some people.  I tried it before and it seemed to soothe my symptoms slightly.  Good luck!!
