Well, I generally have been eschewing the new LC products, but I
have encountered two things recently, neither of which I have seen mentioned. First, I bought some LC Carb-Countdown "juice". (I was a MAJOR juice drinker before I started a LC WOE, so I still have a hole in my diet there--which is usually filled by Fruit 2O or a combination of that and some other LC beverage.) I was excited to see these "juices"--there is even an "arange juice", IIRC. I got the ruby grapefruit. Now the flavor was OKAY, but it was thick. Maybe this would not have struck me as so odd if I had gotten one of the blends that included banana (or is it "banana"--I didn't look too carefully). Anyway, the texture was off-putting for me. I guess before I ditch that half gallon, I'll try a glass of half this and half something else. The second product is something I saw last night: sugar-free Kozy Shack puddings--sweetened with sucralose (!) and (I think) inulin. No yucky ingredients. There were chocolate, vanilla, and tapioca (!)--the last mentioned was, IIRC, 11g carb -3 g fiber. Not that low, but occasionally doable. I may be living on these puddings soon, because I am about to have oral surgery. :-( -- Jean B. |

LC Carb-Countdown "juice". (I
was a MAJOR juice drinker before I started a LC WOE, so I still have a hole in my diet there--which is usually filled by Fruit 2O or a combination of that and some other LC beverage.) I was excited to see these "juices"--there is even an "arange juice", IIRC. I got the ruby grapefruit. Now the flavor was OKAY, but it was thick. Maybe this would not have struck me as so odd if I had gotten one of the blends that included banana (or is it "banana"--I didn't look too carefully). Anyway, the texture was off-putting for me. I guess before I ditch that half gallon, I'll try a glass of half this and half something else. Dilute it - I do that with the milk, as I find it too thick. |
