are plantain chips legal?

[Guest guest]

On Elaine's website http://www.breakingtheviciouscycle.info/

plantain chips are classified as illegal.

However in the scdiet.org website archives, Elaine's answer about

whether plantain chips are legal was:

" If you can be sure there is no sweetener added to plantain and

banana chips then they are OK. "

Can anyone resolve this question?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Gerard,

To further answer your question more recently while on Lyris Elaine wrote, " I

do not have any expertise in various types of banana. The ordinary banana

that we use in North America is the only one I know about. Perhaps you can

go to a search engine. One thing I know is that PLANTAIN is not legal - too

much starch even when considered ripe. Two weeks is an awfully short time to

judge if SCD is working. " from

The scdiet.org archives are older and do not always reflect more recent

changes.

The BTVC website has the most up-to-date information.

http://www.breakingtheviciouscycle.info/ Plaintains are listed as illegal

on it.
