1 carb ketchup is back in stock at LCM - and of course they're sold out of nearly every davinci flavor I wanted so just got 2 ketchups and an English toffee davinci - at least it keeps my costs down.
I can never resist having a look round their site and thinking 'ooh *insert cake or biscuit here* only 3g carbs a serving...'
Yes great I could have a fake tasting, chemical and polyol filled faux food which will stall me while costing 6 times the price of anything in the normal shops - or I can knock myself up home made healthy almond cookies or cupcakes at home and not waste my time/money.
It's amazing how our own minds can try and trick us. We know that low fat frankenfood is bad for us (as they replace the healthy fat with chemicals and extra sugar) but don't apply the same logic to low carb frankenfood when in fact it's exactly the same. People making low carb biscuits aren't doing it to help low carbers stay on plan and lose weight. They want them to fail at losing weight and buy more biscuits. Very very few of the people making low carb products consider whether the product is good for us or will help us lose.
Some do. Some do. But very few.
