for jellies, i think the 4 carb splurge is well worth it to get sf Smucker's instead.
i use the apricot and orange routinely to make chinese orange chicken or baked apricot chicken with goat cheese....
the chocolate, caramel and pb= NO, just NO. not only do they taste foul, they jack up my blood sugar (I'm a type I diabetic- so if something increases BG in me, guess what is happening to YOU? you are probably getting an insulin rise).
the dressings like the asian one and the raspberry one i like sometimes.
i wouldn't touch the creamy ones with a 10 foot pole!
the vinaigrette though are basically water, vinegar, seasonings and stabilizers.
lord knows what's in a cream based one!
i also would use a few carbs to have sf maple syrup by the brand Vermont- it has total carbs per 1/4c.
for catsup, i'm a sf heinz fan- 1g per tbsp. i eat this a LOT on my weekend omelets.
i wouldn't try the alfredos and other products of WF......
so basically i like the occasional vinegar based dressing, but making your own dressing is much healthier and tastes so much better.
