Try calling your local GNC or other health food stores. My local GNC now carries a ton of low carb products since Atkins & other low carb products have greatly increased in popularity. Since it brings in the $ more & more places are selling the products.

Well, I've spent the last half hour looking for the rules of the forum to see if I could do this or not but I can't find the rules. So, go to www.atkinscenter.com and in the upper right-hand corner, click on Store Locator. Try to visit the stores that have CARE next to them. I did and found aisles of low-carb foods.

You can find a few items at the Whole Foods Market. I found a bunch of Atkins products, and others that are low carb, at The Good Earth Health Food Store in the Larwin Square. At Ralph's diet/low cal /low carb diabetic aisle there are quite a few choices including Atkins bake mix, syrups etc. There are also low carb bars at Ralphs. There is another store with the name Mother's
( something ) that carries low carb products.

The reason these things can be found is because customers have been requesting them. Wherever you shop, if you can't find low carb products at your preferred grocery store, ask for it. There is enough of us that things will change if you all ask.

Larwin Square is in Tustin. It is the shopping plaza on Newport Ave where there is the Bank of America, Kinkos, Urban Styles, Sally's, Albertson's, Togos, the closed Wells Fargo Bank and Burger King.

Lightbulb CarbSmart

Well I am not sure if you guys know about this place already or not but a girl at work just told me about a store called CarbSmart in Huntington Beach She said that it's on Beach Blvd and she is not sure about the cross street that it is somewhere around Talbert or Yorktown. I will definitely check this place out after induction!

West Hills..........The best low carb store in the San Fernando Valley is in Sherman Oaks. It is called Humphrys Yogurt and it is on Van Nuys Blvd just south of the 101. It is right next door to Solleys in the Gelsons parking lot. They have tons of low carb food including several hot cereals. They have fresh baked goods also and carbolite frozen yogurt as well. The walls are lined with low carb products and have everything you can find online at a decent price :-).

Good luck,
Naomi

I went to Carbsmart and it has a very good selection.

In VanNuys is Humphrey Yogurts. It is on Van Nuys Blvd, near Ventura Blvd.
