Guest guest Posted September 6, 2004 Report Share Posted September 6, 2004 Don't feel bad Vicki. I have been having so many senior moments lately I have forgotten what senior moment means, LOL!!!!!!!!!!!! BTW as an expert taster of ice cream and very picky, I noninate Breyers CarbSmart Butter Pecan ice cream as it really tastes good. I don't like the other brands. And since they cost so much I want the best brand.

Guest guest Posted September 6, 2004 Report Share Posted September 6, 2004 For those of you living in Texas, H.E.B. now has a low-carb version of some of their Creamy Creations flavors. They have 3g of carbs per serving (4 servings to a pint). The Key Lime is some of the best stuff I've ever had. YUM! Nice and tart! Unfortunately the pints are 2 for $4 instead of $1.39 like the regular stuff. Oh well. I get to keep my toes, which is worth the 61 cents, by far. SulaBlue > Don't feel bad Vicki.
