Carbwise / Carbminders low carb bars

Make that a Diet forum because the South Beach Diet is obviously superior and needs equal footage.

Car forum, definitely.

Also a "lonely, pathetic, internet geek with girl issues" forum.
 
LOL they'd better be tastier than the Carb Solutions bars I've been having.

Good Lord, those taste like pressboard mixed with fertilizer and sweetened with goat blood.

Agreed..those carb solution bars are freaking terrible. I like the CarbWise/CarbMinder bars the best..Biochem strive (the crunchy ones) second..then the atkins brand.
 
Are the peanut butter chocolate ones good? Do they actually taste like peanut butter and chocolate?

CarbSolutions' "chocolate peanut butter" tastes like sawdust, pine-sol, and gravy.

The peanut butter chocolate is my fave..its got a real PB taste to it. The rasberry wasn't so good..i haven't found a "fruit" flavoured low carb bar I have liked yet. Smores was pretty good.
 
I like a couple of Atkins (PB and Choc, for example) but the damn methane these things produce from the alcohol sugar...sheesh. Will Beano help?

If you are affected by sugar alchohols in that manner..thats actually a good thing. That means your body isn't digesting them. Some people digest sugar alchohols, meaning they get the extra carbs in their blood stream...
 
Well, there's good and there's good...it's all a matter of context. Physiologically good and socially good are two different animals!
Anyway, any cure for this annoyance while still being able to enjoy the bars? Seriously...

Nope. If you take some sort of anti-gas agent, it will only make you sick or make matters worse.
 
Well, I suppose I could just wear a t-shirt that says "pull my finger", or maybe try to sell some of this back to the utility company.

Try eating just half the bar at a time. See if that helps.

Another stark reminder of just how insidious sugar can be. Poor spelling is just one symptom of its effects.

 
according to a SBD email i got, all bars are crap for the diet, including the so called low-carb bars.

i figured as much, but it was still a bummer. i still have half a box of clif bars sitting in the bottom drawer of my desk too.
