Hi -

We had a big discussion about this before.

Go check the Atkins Forum and I just bumped up an old topic for you.

I posted an article about this stuff, Jackie, in the Low Carb Diet and Health News forum. You can find it here.

I am really skeptical about this pasta. I have tried it, and it does taste ok, but it triggered cravings and made me feel sluggish, just like any carby meal. I don't think the Dreamfield's people are being entirely straight with us. (But that's just MHO)

And I just bumped another thread here in the cooking forum.

Read everything before making your decision.

Jackie - it's good, but if you have too muchyou'd better not be far from a bathroom the next day!

Despite what the company says, I think they've loaded it with carb blockers.

Feel free to try it, but do be warned, that 5 carb count of theirs lulls you into a false sense of security and it's far too easy to say "oh, I can have more!"

I found that while I didn't go out of ketosis, I was too tempted by other lc breads and crackers after having this and went on a mini binge (all lc stuff, but carbs none the less)

Do read the links Trina and Marcia posted. It's best to make an informed choice with this product.
