Has anyone else tried the new Hood Carb Countdown juice beverages? They
contain between 2 and 4 grams of net carbs per 8 ounce serving and are
sweetened with Splenda. They are found in the refrigerated juice section.
I tried and liked both the orange and the lemonade. Other flavors include
Ruby Red, Orange-Pineapple and Pineapple-Orange-Banana. The price has
ranged from 99 cents to $2.69 per half gallon. I found them here in
Massachusetts at Demoulas, Price Chopper and Stop & Shop. As when they
introduced the Carb Countdown milk, they do seem to be having distribution
problems. You can find more info at www.hphood.com.


I tried the grapefruit. The flavor was okay, but it had an
off-putting thick texture. I needed space in the fridge, and
threw the rest out.
