Skinny Cow?
I bought some LC ice cream bars this weekend. 3g carbs per bar. I think the
brand was Skinny Cow or something like that. I can't check because I tossed them after the first on. Yuck. No flavor, weird sort of fluffy, icy texture. Not creamy at all. FYI - Bear |

The only flavor I could find was Chocolate Peanutbutter. They are kind of
'fluffy'. However, they had the lowest Sugar Alcohol content of all the brands available in my store. 1g/4-oz vs an average of 5g/3-oz for the others. OK for an occaisonal treat. :-) Steve "Bear" wrote in message ink.net... I bought some LC ice cream bars this weekend. 3g carbs per bar. I think the brand was Skinny Cow or something like that.

Yeah but this wasn't food. Next time I have something like that I can mail
it to you if you like. -Bear You just threw them out? Sorry, I cant fathom that. I was taught against wasting food, and would have tried my best to give them away or something. |

Well to each his own, eh. Glad you found something you can treat yourself
with. I'm new at this and don't understand Sugar Alcohol and what that means. Good luck to you, Steve. -Bear "Scionyx" wrote in message news:i7vTb.167000$nt4.750309@attbi_s51...

Well, that is how I kept on putting off starting the LC WOE. I was also taught not to throw away food. Hmmm. Could that possibly be correlated with overeating????? g -- Jean B. |

Is not making your body process it really "wasting" it anyway? Wasting money, yes. But food will either end up in the garbage or the toilet. The only difference being food in the trash has no chance of making you fat! ;-) LCing since 12/01/03- Me- 265/230/140 & hubby- 310/258/180 |

For many, myself included, the consumption of sugar alcohols results in gas
and other 'gastric disorders', when the body tries to digest them. Others have no problem with SA's in any quantity. So the SA content of a product is very important to me, having learned the hard way. :-) I can tolerate small quantities of some products, but even one Carb-o-lite jelly bean and it's a jet propelled trip to the little room at the end of hall for an extended stay. :-) (I'm not "putting down" those jelly beans, just reporting my own reaction.) Oh, SA's include Polyols; Sorbitol, Malitol, Lactitol, etc., and Glycerin[sp?]. Not sure of the latter, as it always seems to be used in combination with other SA's. Have a good one, Steve "Bear" wrote Well to each his own, eh. Glad you found something you can treat yourself with. I'm new at this and don't understand Sugar Alcohol and what that means. Good luck to you, Steve. -Bear |

Believe it or not, but I've even thrown away an almost completely full tub of almonds. Oh my Gawd! |
