Salad cream...
 

Are we allowed salad cream or is there too much sugar in it?

There was something else and i can't think for the life of me what it was......grrrrrr stupid brain! :lol: :roll: :doah:

oh...is elmlea cream any good or should we get the proper stuff?

I'll post what ever the other thing was when I remember....getting too dizzy these days! :rolleyes:

With regard to salad cream - look at the label. You might be better off with mayonnaise (full fat - Hellmans is OK).

Use real cream - double cream. The other stuff is higher in carbs.

Hi Kelly :)

In general they do advise you to steer clear of salad cream. You can easily make your own mayo if you want to be sure of no added sugar (I'll be putting a recipe in my journal at some point if that helps)... by adjusting the quantities, its very easy to make more like salad cream than mayo.

Or, as Robert says, there's always good old Hellmann's! :)

By the by... congratulations on the progress. Looks like you're doing really well! :clap:

think i'd go with the mayo.Robs right,hellmans is lovely.

or if you can get to a morrisons they do there own fresh mayo in a tub near the pre packed salad its 69p and makes hellmans taste crap ( and helmans was my favourite!!) It also has less carbs than helmans

Oh not fair!!!:mad: I want some of that now.
Ummm i wonder how many 100's of miles my local Morrisons is:rolleyes:

What a lovely site letting you know how far away there stores are. Well i have never been to a Morrisons but if their web site is anything to go by it looks like a great place to shop. (hopefully i wont get into any arguements with the staff there either lol)

Still got my eye on the Sunderland shop though, there's a certain lady up there i need to have a word with :lol:

have I missed something?

Just finished adding the mayo recipe to my journal for those who want it. Hope it helps. :)

I have just seen it ebbie!! hahahahahahahahaha catch me if you can I have lost 24lbs and can run a wee bit faster now!!!

:cheer: woohooo go Lynda, go Lynda, go Lynda :cheer:

This site has some amazing garlic mayo

http://www.halzherb.com

they also sell herb packages that you mix with your own favourite mayo to make fantastic dips, next time I go back there I'll be buying up the shop!

Oh and the herb bath sachets are really, really excellent too.
