They are pretty good but a bit pricey. Trying to keep the carbs down, so how does this compare? The label shows more calories and fat than I'd like to see, but overall is it a good choice over cookies, cake, chocolate bars, etc. that I've cut out?
2 net is what you look for...thats goodI know there are ways around carbs and all, but still 17g for something like that seems high to me. I would not eat for the same reason those so called protein bars don't work for me.
But I don't know you or your goals. It's very much user dependent. If you are good with them, go for it.
That is what is sold and that is exactly my point. I personally think it’s not that clear of a divide. More fuzzy in the way some people react. Just a sweet taste in the mouth can send some people’s insulin in opposite directions2 net is what you look for...thats good
Well I went from 268 to 150 in two years using the Atkins diet and there food and snacks and I did use the net carb as the final amount.. It worked for me and have kept the weight off for over 9 years..NET CARB is what I look for..That is what is sold and that is exactly my point. I personally think it’s not that clear of a divide.

All pre-packaged foods like that are junk food in one form or another. Don't even walk down that aisle of the store, there is nothing there that you should eat. Stick to produce and other whole natural foods. It's a lifestyle change.... They are pretty good but a bit pricey. Trying to keep the carbs down, so how does this compare? ...

I've cut out most chips, cookies, cake, ice cream, bread, pizza, pasta and try to have a decent size salad with every dinner. Fruits are full of sugar so I keep them in check. Nuts have a lot of fat and calories so don't have too much either. These pre-packaged foods seem to combine the right amount of ingredients to taste good and meet a specific dietary goal that natural foods can't. I mean, only so many twigs and leaves you can eat before it gets boring.All pre-packaged foods like that are junk food in one form or another.

Don't some 90% of Americans get backed up regularly? Maybe they should add that to the water like fluoride.Well, they add lactitol which is used not only as a sweetener but as a laxative so you may certainly get lighter!
Plus, somewhere down the road they find out that junk isn't so good in other ways as well.A lot of the low carb and reduced sugar products use acesulfame potassium, aspartame, and sucralose as sweeteners. If I understand correctly, they trick your body into thinking it consumed sugar, which in turn causes a lot of the same bad things & processes that consuming sugar triggers. It's probably best to reduce sugar & carb intake without the fake sugars.
