Mission Carb Balance Tortillas
 
I don't know what people have been buying, but the Mission Carb Balance
whole wheat tortillas I buy are marked "small - fajita" and are 80
calories each. They habe no transfats or cholesterol. Each tortilla
has 13g carbohydrates and 10g dietary fiber, making it 3 net grams per
tortilla.

I also know that they are DH meter-friendly. We don't eat a lot of them,
but it's nice to enjoy an occasional enchilada or two or a quesodia for
a quick meal. AAMOF, we'll be having spinach and mushroom quesodias for
dinner tonight with a salad.

my system seems to adapt to these things and they will react eventually like
normal carbs

At first they work fine then they bring a delayed spike and eventually a
regular spike as if I ate a non low carb item.

so now if want a taco or tortilla I just eat one regular one and pile the
rest of my plate with lettuce and meat and cheese and eat it as a lettuce
wrap or if I'm lazy a salad..lol

The only problem I have with Mission Carb Balance is they stick to one
another. I wrote to the company with the complaint and received an answer ,
stating they were aware of the problem and working on fixing them...has that
problem been fixed yet?

We had that problem with some of the gluten free ones. So we had to quit
buying them.

What I had for dinner tonight was from La Tortilla Factory. They are a mix
of yellow corn and wheat. I had three and some fat free refried beans.
Also raw baby carrots. BG was 100 before I ate and 122 at two hours later.
Some here would not like those numbers but they work for me.

Keep them in the fridge. They don't seem to stick when cold.
