Just wanted to share that with you all!

Be careful as one of the main ingredients is high fructose corn syrup and may trigger cravings or cause blood sugar spikes!

To get to the rainbow you must first pass through the rain!

It does rock, Tracy!

I haven't had any cravings eating it, and I've even got the grandkid liking it, so no more sugar ice cream for him, either.

I know there are tales of folks binging on the stuff, but I've had no problems with portion control. It is TONS cheaper than LeCarb, and tastes so much better.

My wife and I tried the Strawberry Carb Smart last night - 4 g. per serving, and it was delicious!

Wow....cool. Does Walmart carry them? Where do you guys get them?

Only place for me is the WalMart Supercenter. Haven't seen it in any of the regular stores... Kroger, Publix, BiLo, etc. Not yet anyway.

WalMart will be my dream store if they just get some low-carb rolls and tortillas!

I've only seen them at Walmart-Supercenter too. Although as far as additional sugar cravings there weren't any. I ate the 1/2 cup serving, which i think i inhaled rather and about 30 min later i did feel a bit of a tummy ache. But man oh man...YUMMMMY!! lol

I hope I can convince my walmart to get some of this in! What a special treat, and I have no problem controlling cravings or portions and such. Thanks for this info!!! Now if I can just get the chance to try it.

Mikeyrat, Im in Columbus, Ga which is not too terribly far from Augusta and our Publix now has the Breyers, so hopefully yours will soon. Also, our Publix just started baking Atkins bread. Of course it is 4.99 a meager loaf, but at least the whole low carb thing seems to be catching on in the grocery store!

I live in Connecticut....at Stop and Shop in Cromwell...they have an atkins display...many low carb bars...meal bars and candy...and they have breyers carb smart in vanilla, choc, and strawberry...i tried the latter and i love it....AND they carry atkins endulge ice cream.....the atkins for 4 small servings in vanilla or choc is $5.69.....breyers in the 3 flavors stated is $5.39 for half gallon........CANNOT WAIT FOR THE BUY ONE GET ONE SALE....AND FOR THE SUNDAY PAPER TO HAVE THE COUPONS SINCE IT IS A NEW PRODUCT.....

If I set a goal...then when I finally reach that goal..I am afraid that I will use it as a license to eat..therefore..I have no goal...only to stick to this wol FOREVER!!!

Yeah, I saw the Breyers in BiLo yesterday at $5+ a half gallon. It is $3.85 a 1/2 gallon at Wal-Mart.

For those of you looking at Wal-Mart, our Supercenter has it on one shelf, about 4 doors down from the regular Breyers.

Leasa - forget that Atkins junk. Since you're here in the Southeast, you can get Nature's Own, for $2.00 a loaf of regular sized bread. It's 5 net grams carbs per slice, and TONS better than the Atkins. I've eaten it plenty and it has no impact on me or my wife. Its on the bread aisle with the other whole wheat breads usually. Is at Kroger anyway.

Also, I bet the closest Supercenter Wal-mart has some of that Carb Countdown Dairy Beverage... check it out.

Natures own low carb wheat bread can also be found in Food Lion & Bi-lo here in Augusta. Got the Bryers lo-carb chocolate ice cream at Wal-Mart for $2.98 1/2 gal. earlier this week.

OMG, forgot to add Wal-mart. The have it too.

Ushie1, do I know you? I see you're from Augusta, too and wondered if you were one of my low-carb pals from work...
