Has anyone successfully tried any of the low carb foods that are sold
online? I live in a small town, and can't find very many products
locally. One place that caught my eye was www.nosugardaddy.com .. has
anyone tried this place, or can recommend another online vendor to
look into?

Thanks

They don't sell meat, eggs, and cheese in your little town?

Yeah try and stick with a diet of whole foods that is naturaly
low carb instead of eating fake processed foods artificialy made to be
low in carbs. Most of it is pretty scary stuff loaded with sucralos
and soy flower. If you must have bread go with sprouted whole
grain/multi grain breads wich are fairly low in carbs and much more
healthy than nasty low carb soy flower breads.

I have great experiences with www.netrition.com. Orders are always in good
time, packaged well, and the prices are reasonable.

Though, many of the low carb versions of things are yucky and not worth it
at any price. If there are some specific things you're looking at, ask
over here and I'll let you know if I've had it and what I thought of it.

Why is it that people feel such a powerful need to control what other
people eat? There are dozens of perfectly reasonable reasons why people
use this stuff, and you don't know the whole story. I can see *suggesting*
that they might be happier with whole foods, but *telling* them to stick to
whole foods is pretty presumptuous.

I too have ordered from them. Aside from one order that seemed to get lost
somewhere out there in cyberspace, I've had no problems with the orders. I
did have a problem with most of the foods though. They were inedible! The
pumpkin custard was okay and low in carbs when made with water, but it is
sold in such a large quantity that I could never eat all of it. Bought a
chocolate shake mix for my daughter. She liked it for a while then got
burned out on it. Also bought some of the gelatin and powdered drink mixes.
Nothing wrong with those, except that now the flavors I was buying are
widely available in any grocery store. Really no need for me to order from
them any more.

I'm type 2, and while I typically use whole grain breads as my carb
source in each meal, it's killing me to not be able to put jam on my
bread or dressing on my salad. Most of the products on that
nosugardaddy.com website use sugar alcohols like maltitol, sorbitol,
mannitol, as sweeteners.. are those as bad as sucralose? I know
sucralose is a chlorinated carb, but I don't think the sugar alcohols
are.

Why no dressing on your salad? There are plenty of very LC salad
dressing options.

What's wrong with sucralose in your view? I don't care for the taste,
which is why I don't use much of it. I am using less and less of the
sugar alcohols because of frequent GI response to them.

I like Smuckers reduced sugar jam myself.

Low carb friends has a good marketplace that's reputable and reliable.
It also has a nice community message board that's very helpful and not
as impersonal as usenet.

Huh? Sucralose is the **good** product. All those "-ols" are bad!

Maybe Mike meant: Sucrose?

Sugar alcohols = laxative. If you like dashing to the bathroom, passing
gas, having stomach pains, etc., go for it! Personally, I try to avoid that
junk.

Hi Jolly

I suspect that I would probably strenuously disagree with that statement
if it was stated in English. But, as I am as completely ignorant of the
expertise available on "carb friends" as you are of that available on
usenet, I'll call it quits.

It's been ages since I've had a jam or jelly on my bread. I butter up
my toast and put splenda and cinnamon on it and stick it in the
microwave for 20 seconds. YUMMY

Oil and vinegar for the salad? Stay away from low-fat salad dressings.
They have a bunch of sugar added to compensate for the lower taste from
the lower fat.
