Those tv ads for Atkins-friendly wraps make me want to head straight over there.

Anybody tried these yet?

Not yet but I look at a subway all day long and I can see the pictures in their window. Soon i will have to take that walk across the parking lot. I am just afraid I will really like them and with subway so close I will eat too many!

I went to a Subway over the holiday. The wraps themselves have 5 net carbs. I decided to make a special combination and had them add ham, chicken, cheese and bacon. Before I realized it, the price had gone up to $8.00 with all the meats. I had to have a diet Pepsi with it too. Overall it was great – unlike the usual Subway sandwiches, all the meat filled me up for hours. I was really impressed, but next time I will probably stick to one meat to keep the price from going so high.

On December 29, Subway® Restaurants will offer two Atkins® Nutritionals, Inc.-endorsed low-carbohydrate wraps: the Turkey and Bacon Melt Wrap, with Monterey cheddar cheese, and the Chicken Bacon Ranch Wrap, with Swiss cheese. Both Atkins® -Friendly Wraps, available in the U.S. and Canada, have 11 grams Net Carbs or less, and the wrap itself, which is made with wheat gluten, cornstarch, oat, sesame flour and soy protein, has only 5 grams Net Carbs. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

I tried the Chicken Bacon Ranch Wrap today for lunch.

YUMMMMMMY! I substituted the ranch sauce for regular mayo and I have to say it was very good. It is nice to know that there is a low carb option there.

My only complaint (and it is a small one) is that the tortilla tasted a little bit sweet to me. I haven't had any LC tortilla or bread products yet so I'm not sure if that's common or not? I still highly recommend trying them. As I said the one I had was delicious.

I tried the turkey wrap the other day, it was VERY GOOD but not that filling. I could eat two of them, and probably will next time.

I haven't tried them yet, but i will. I don't like the sodium thoug, 1600 is a bit much, so i'll make sure to drink a lot of water. I hope one is filling for me because the calories are high and eventhough i'm on this wol, i like to stay below 1600/day. I don't count like before, but keep a general idea.

Started 3/20/03 thru 9/2003
Restarted 1/2/04, this time i will finish what i started.

It is 5 for the wrap itself. The veggies and sauce probably add the other six. I guess there meat would have some carbs too maybe since it is processed and all...paladin, what would you say the meat had, if any?

You can make any sub into a LC wrap. I was moving this weekend and Subway was on my path during my two trips. Saturday I had their cold cut trio for lunch, then steak and cheese for dinner.

I don't think that the chicken had any sort of sauce on it, so I would guess that it’s about zero, same with the bacon. My one hesitation is with the ham – many hams are cured with sugar or maple syrup. But I honestly don’t know about Subway ham specifically.

So is one wrap by itself enough for lunch or do you need a side salad with it? If you order two than that will double the carbs.
