Guest guest Posted May 29, 2004 Report Share Posted May 29, 2004 I haven't "officially" started the SBD yet, but many of you know that I have low/moderate carbed for 1 1/2 years. My husband and I went out the other day, and while we were eating, I watched a woman eat her meal. She was with a man and a child of about 5-6. The man and child both ate "normal" meals. The woman ate the following: 1) A baked potato. She put the butter and sour cream aside (they were in containers) and put steak sauce and ketchup on the potato. She ate only the fluffiest middle potion. 2) A large bowl of fruit, primarily consisting of what looked like watermelon, grapes, and a few strawberries. Also, possibly, a piece of honeydew melon. 3) A slice of pie. It was lemon meringue, I think, because of the color. She ate the meringue (?sp) only, pushing the rest aside. I was almost choking from trying not to laugh at this meal. Cheryl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 29, 2004 Report Share Posted May 29, 2004 That is hysterical. And, odds are, if someone asked her... she would say she was 'watching her weight'. If she only knew, she threw all the best stuff away! (Even butter and sour cream would have been better on her potato than sugary steak sauce and ketchup!!) Talk about a crazy sugar meal!!!

Guest guest Posted May 29, 2004 Report Share Posted May 29, 2004 I know. Nothing BUT sugar really. No protein in it that I could see unless you count the egg whites for the meringue. My blood sugar would have been skyhigh after that "feast," and I can't even imagine how horribly blah it must have tasted. Yuck. Cheryl -----Original Message-----From: stephi2377 That is hysterical.

Guest guest Posted May 29, 2004 Report Share Posted May 29, 2004 Ewww to me either way. I haven't liked (or eaten) ketchup since I was a kid. I went to the equally sugar-laden barbecue sauce (spicy though) as my "dip of choice." Don't think I'd like it on a baked potato though, especially not combined with A1. LOL! Cheryl LOL, not so ewww.

Guest guest Posted May 30, 2004 Report Share Posted May 30, 2004 Don't give away all those secret Canadian foods. Next thing you know those guys to the south will be drooling over beaver paws :-) I'm not a big fan of poutine but when I had it years ago made by some displaced Montrealers they put barbeque sauce on the chips and curds (the chips MUST be hot to melt the curds). I liked that much better than gravy. - qui demeurre en Ontario > > Up here it's salt and vinegar on our " chips " :-) > > > > - recovering ketchup addict Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
