netrition low carb products

[Mithlondwe]

I've read so much here about folks ordering from netrition. Just wondering, what some of your favorite products are which you've ordered from there, and others, which you did, but wish you hadn't.

So far on my list to order are:

carb quick
ketostrips
davinci syrup (lemon to add to iced tea)
flax meal

[Annie1gi]

Hi I never ordered from Netrition, but I have bought the flax seed cereal, but for me I didn't really care for it, but I am not much of a cereal type eater, so I may not be the best judge.

Now the Davinci syrups! :yum: Now you are talking! I love the hazelnut and need of more immediately or sooner! :lol: Bought the Kahluaha flavored...not impressed, nor the vanilla all sugarfree of course. I hear that the caramel is good and the raspberry, but haven't tried. If you want expert advice ask Kevinpa! I am sure that man can answer just about anything to do with a low carb product!

Good luck!!!

I personally would love to get a hold of some of the sweezfree everyone is yakking about.......

I get tons of syrups from Netrition. I have also gotten some lc crackers from there that were really good. The almond flour is also cheaper then in local stores. I've also used them for baking supplies such as carbquick, thick not thin, polyD, xanthum gum, stevia ect ect.

Besides the DaVincci's though I typically just buy what ever is on sell, a featured product, or something that has struck my fancy. The syrups are the only things I buy regularly.

Dixie Carb Counters brownie mix
Baja Bob's no-sugar-added pina colada mix

I love all those things, and I try some new things every time I order, I also have eat well be well chocolate chips, I love that there are no sugar alcohols in them to make me sick, and I have almost all of the davinchi syrups on hand, I use them for baking and icecream also, i get my baking supplies there,and my supplements, too.

[Mithlondwe]

Thanks for the replies!

How are the eat well be well chocolate bars? I may have to try them. I like the thought of them, especially the no sugar alcohol part!

[liddie01]

i like them, I just had one.

[Mithlondwe]

Yep, gonna give them a try!

*adding eat well bee well chocolate to my order list ;) *

The eat well be well chocolate bars are like a dark chocolate. I like them but my husband does not (he only likes milk chocolate--I wish there was a SF milk chocolate).

I order lots and lots of stuff from Netrition and have been happy with all except GG Scandinavian Crispbread (I like bran but I thought those were awful) and a pancake mix--texture was awful (don't remember the brand; I now make Sherrielee's pancake recipe and they are just like the high carb ones in taste/texture; I substitute Carbquik or whatever lc flour I have for the atkins mix in her recipe). I also didn't care for Baja Bob's key lime margarita mix--it was too sweet for my taste.

I keep all this stuff on hand regularly:

Mama Lupe low carb tortillas (3 carbs each)
Erythritol
Sweet one (so I can combine sweetners for synergy)
Polydextrose
Carbalose flour (I use this for breads/yeast rolls)
Wheat gluten
Baja Bob's SF original margarita mix (love it frozen but I don't add ice, I mix it up and put in the freezer then into the blender just before drinking); also like the Sweet and Sour mix
Tippy Rosa LC taco shells (only 3 carbs each)
Bella Vita Roasted Garlic pasta sauce
Almond flour (blanched)
Hazelnut meal/flour
Carbquik
I just tried Dixie Diner's potato mashers and they taste just like
real mashed potatoes--instant mashed potatoes but that's
fine--we loved them.
Eat Well Be Well choc bars and chocolate chips
DaVinci's syrup--caramel is our favorite, we also like Kahlua and
French Vanilla.
Dreamsfield pastas--Netrition is cheaper than the groc store
Walden Farms orig b.q. sauce
Expert ThickenThin not starch

These make a great thickener also. A couple of tablespoons to some drippings and you have a great lc gravy.

I also buy a fair amount of things from Netrition. They seem to have everything. They have a low carb spaghetti sauce that my whole family loves. That along with the dreamfields pasta and it's just like the regular old spaghetti dinner-minus the garlic bread of course. The only thing I bought that I wish I hadn't was Geraldine's low carb cheese straws-Blech! I've found that the LC taco shells, almond flour, and such are cheaper online than they are in the one and only store I can find them in. Speaking of which, I need to get another order in soon.

With the Dixie Mashed Potatoes and Carbalose flour, maybe I should attempt to make low-carb pierogi, one of my all-time favorite comfort foods.

[liddie01]

wow, I never thought of that, or I could make the perogie bake that my friend makes, using the dixie diners and cheese and dreamfields pasta, I think I'll try it.

[jjb2000]

I've never had pieroge--how do you make it? I do plan to make some potato pancakes with dixie diners.

[Mithlondwe]

Liddie and Newbirth,

I tried the Eat well be well, SO GOOD!!! Thanks for the recommendation!

[Newbirth]

You're welcome! I have to be careful with sugar alcohols because they seem to stall me, so the Eat Well, Be Well bars are my sweet salvation.

[Mithlondwe]

I truly enjoyed it! Wouldn't believe it's low carb. I read the wrapper several times. I think one of those now and then will really help curb/satisfy the cravings. Again, thanks!

My family makes them with dough made with flour and buttermilk and fill them with mashed potatoes, sauerkraut, cottage cheese, lekwar (prunes), and a few other fillings. The meatless ones are very popular in the spring during Lent.
