Another Low Carb Restaurant Menu

Over the weekend DH and I went to Cracker Barrell as we got up early to shop
and decided to have breakfast. We both went in there with the intention of
just ordering eggs and bacon or sausage, hold the grits and biscuits, etc, when
we discovered 3 low carb items highlighted on the back of the menu. We both
got the Low Carb Sampler, which was 3 eggs, and one piece each of sausage,
bacon and country ham. The meal also came with one piece of low carb bread
toasted but we didn't eat that. The country ham was particularly yummy!!

Other than the bread, what's so special about eggs and meat? Before
low-carb came along I think that was pretty standard breakfast fare.
What's next? Sizzler introducing it's new "low carb" steak? Served
without the bread, sides or potatoes of course, but since it's now
"low carb" they charge you $3 more.

Well, Cracker Barrell is known for its high carb country style breakfasts, with
grits, biscuits and gravy, fried apples and hash brown casserole coming with
the faire. I found it nice that at a place where I thought I might have to
omit things, there were low carb choices already there. There was no price
hike, either.

Most of their breakfasts come with muffins, grits, potato casserole,
etc. I think it's nice to be able to order a meal and not have to go
through the Meg Ryan routine in, "When Harry Met Sally." (Not the
orgasm scene G)

Now you've gone and done it. People have just got to quit describing my
favorite meals! The first and last time I went to a Cracker Barrel was 3 years
ago and it has haunted me ever since. (Simpson Drool.)

I agree with you Deneen. Before I read your post, I would never consider
eating there again.

I think part of the "special" part about the low carb menu is that it offers
a SAMPLER which gives you the eggs (not so special) and (here is the special
part) sausage, bacon, & ham. Other breakfast choices would make you get
part of it and have to order a side of the other to get all three.

Sounds nice to me, but if I were to go to Cracker Barrel, I would want some
of the hash brown casserole.
