Bryers Has a New Flavor Of Low Carb IceCream out :) Found it today.

[LisaC]

Ok, so I decided to have some icecream. I went to the Bryers low carb section and, low and behold, was yet another flavor. Prailines and Cream. I have to say I'm rather impressed. Most lowcarb and diabetic stuff had been pretty plain until now. And I have to say, it's got a great taste to it. I love the crunchy nuts.

Oh, I'm going to have to try that! love pralines.
will have to stick to my 5 oz cup limit though, or it'll be way too much.

[LisaC]

That's what I did, the good ole five ouncer. They coated the pralines with something, maybe Splenda, to give them a nice crunchy texture and taste. It really satisfied the need I had at that moment for crunchy with good taste. It was definitely satisfying for sure.

Lisa or mary Kay

What are the numbers on that, including sugar alcohols? Also I heard that thet had stopped making it witrh HFCS. Is That true?

Thanks

Oh man, not more ice creams. ice cream is a huge weakness of mine, i just love the stuff. Hmmmmm, when im done with my Bluebunny choc almond fudge, i guess i will try that one next. Which by the way, if youre a choc lover and havent tried this, oh man make sure youre strong enough to have one serving before you buy it, cuz it is the best i have tasted, and ive had my share of ice creams.

Rob, what is HFCS?

I was wong on the type of icecream, not sure why I was thinking pralines, but it's actually butter pecan. My body seems to tolerate it well. I don't get the hypoglycemic effect with it and I'm not sand blasted out of keytosis, thankfully.

This is for the Vanila

Lisa, I wondered what HFCS was too... but then I figured it out (or at least I think I did... Rob can validate).

HFCS=High Fructose Corn Syrup.

[LisaC]

*puts hand up to head* why the heck didn't I think of that one. LOL. Thanks

[Rob]

Sorry, I should have spelled it out but I am lazy. LOL

So is there HFCS? The numbers you posted sounf okay. 10 carbs less 3 fiber = 7 net. And Mostly i deduct half the sugar alcohols so that would bring it down to 5.5 for me. The trouble is stopping at one serving, NOT something I do very well. Did you say they come in individual cups? That can help.. I bought a box of six vanilla pops with chocolate almond coating and I made them last 8 days. Not fantastic but for me not bad.

[LisaC]

No, they come just like any regular icecream, in a carton. But, I've got some five ounce cups I've saved up, so I make them individual.

[Rob]

Gotcha, will have to talk my sister into buying some so I can steal a cup.

[LisaC]

Rob, I checked the label and it does have Frutose, but nothing else like "high frutose, ect, ect," That's the only sugar I could find, which probably accounts for the 4 in the sugars area. The rest is Sorbital.


Now, if I could have my mom do that so I could borrow a 1/2 cup, and not keep it here at the house, I'd be much better off. LMAO.

What is this 5 oz rule? I have been away from Atkins for a while, and I don't recall this. Is this something that just works? Is it for everything or just sweets? Just curious

[LisaC]

newbee, It's not an "Atkins" rule that I know of, but I think more of a personal limit so we don't go overboard.


Actually, unless you have really really really good control on stopping, you might not want to get the icecream just yet. It's too darned good.

Hey Rob, how did u like the pops, were they the blue bunny ones, they are my favorite pop flavor, i love the coating, i could eat the coating and nothing else.
