RE: Great-tasting LC cookies

[Guest guest]

Cappie,

There are some low carb cookies by Keebler that I enjoy...

don't have any now, so I'm not sure of the carb count, but

if I'm not mistaken the chocolate are 2 carbs, the peanut

butter are 3 carbs, and the chocolate chip are 4 carbs... I

like the chocolate & the peanut butter the best.

Sandy

& what is the calorie & carb count per cookie? & who wants

(or can

restrict oneself) to just one cookie? I find most low

carb/sugar free

stuff is almost or sometimes higher than the real stuff.

Sandy: does that carb count include the sugar alcohols which do NOT

have to be included by law??? & Calories count too.

Sandy: net carbs does not mean anything if the sugar alcohols have not

been included on the labeling & by law they do not have to be because

supposedly they have " no " effect on bg's. Well of course that is not

true for everyone. For some diabetics the sugar alcohols raise bg's

just as much as real sugar. Of course manufacturers do no want to

acknowledge this. Those " low carb " ice creams usually are loaded with

sugar alcohols too. Fine if they don't affect you but not if you are

someone who are affected.
