By helpful I mean that they at least make an effort to provide some low carb and sugar free products. Nothing is perfect of course, but at least I am able to have some of the things I have given up for the past 8 mo.

I found these breads in Kroger and couldn't believe how many different choices they have: Healthy Life Bread - Home I've never heard of a bread made with Splenda, but it comes out with a low enough carb count that I've even had a BLT recently.

Today I found some sugar free baked goods. I'm having angel food cake with fresh strawberries right now....yummmm! Hill and Valley Sugar Free Bakery| Sugar Free & No Sugar Added Cakes, Cookies, Muffins, Brownies, Pies | America's Leading Supplier of Sugar Free Desserts | Premium Bakery I also bought their sliced pumpkin spice creme cake (5 net carbs).....I'm in heaven!

Again, it's not a total free ride. There are sugar alcohols in the products and I'm sure a person could overdo it with this stuff too, but I've been fortunate that a small portion of these treats doesn't cause a spike AND that I can feel satisfied with a small serving. Even so, I immediately frozen 3/4 of the pumpkin cake so I wouldn't be able to pig out on it. LOL

Sorry if everyone already knew about this stuff, but I hadn't seen it mentioned on the forum so thought I would share my experience.

I've never been bashful about naming the brands I can tolerate & I'm always happy to know about new ones. Kroger seems to be a front-runner in making available more choices - at least around here. I'll be looking for the Hill & Valley products! Thanks, Diana!

I don't know if Kroger carries the Hill&Valley stuff. I came across the two products at Meijer which is a Michigan chain, but you can do a store locator from their site and see where you can find them. That darn angel food cake was delicious!! I'm still licking my lips!

I love angel food cake, I will have to look for these products. We have many Meijer stores in Columbus. Thanks Diana!

Ok, found two new things today (both at Kroger). One is their CarbMaster yogurt, which they've had but some new flavors! Carrot Cake!!! LOL It's pretty good! The other one I haven't tasted yet is called Spiced Pear.... Then I found some soy milk called Soy Slender. Vanilla flavored with only 1g net carbs per 1 cup. Made with Splenda. I have given up on milk for the past 8 mo. so this will be nice!

We don't have Kroegers up near Cleveland just Giant and Heinens. I find I've been buying lots of my low carb items like Walden Farms 0 carb syrups, jams, BBQ sauce, coconut flour, coconut oil at Netrition.com - The Internet's Premier Nutrition Superstore!
Lately I've been eating the Eziekel sprouted bread. It does spike me the first hour but I am usually back around 120 or lower at 2 hours and under 100 at 3 hours.
