I went to this area under Newbies and Induction. My husband wanted to know if there was information on carb values and lo-carb friendly restaurants (especially airports) There is a link for this subject but doesn't work. Does anyone know of a link that would address this? Thanks.

Hmm, that's a good question, not sure.

there is a site www.dietfacts.com which will have the nutritional information for many restaurants and brand foods. This may not be it exactly, but it is helpful.

Polly, which link is it exactly?
I'll see if I can fix it.

Since there are a lot of fast food restaurants in airports, this link might help:

Pollym,

Brightlady's not on-line at the moment, so I checked it out. You're correct, that link, which was copied from our previous forum location, was out of date.

I've replaced it with the links you see in this thread, both of which are current and take you to sites with information about eating out.

Thanks so much for brining a broken link to our attention!

Thanks everyone.

I found a great book this afternoon at WAldenbooks on nutritional values of almost everything you might put into your body from almost any source. It is called: The Doctor's Calorie, Fat and Carbohydrate Counter. It contains information on 170 fast food restaurants as well as about 200 pages of regular food you would buy! It is apparantly available on this website too www.calorieking.com . It does not separate out fiber, but it is a good reference for someone looking for a guide that would fit in your purse/pocket for quick look ups.
