Default Hi, I am off to London soon...

and was wondering if anyone knew where I can buy some shiratake noodled, I am presuming China Town? Does anyone know how much they cost? Also is it true you can buy diet cherry coke in the UK now?

Thanks

I have seen cherry coke in a few places yes, you should be able to get hold of some easily enough.

On this topic, I'm going to London soon. Any good low carb shops, or bodybuilding supplement shops?

The nearest butcher shop. Food is your bodybuilding supplement!

To be honest, Helen, I can't think of any specific lowcarb product available in UK that would not be availabe in USA for much less cost

Maybe some of the English/Scottish/Welsh/Irish cheeses? I imagine many of the smaller locally distributed ones are not exported.

I am sitting here (in the UK) drinking diet cherry coke right now. Easily available in any decent size supermarket.

Haven't found any great low carb products or shops over here. Low carb is really not something they 'get' here.

Emma is the diet cherry coke nice? I will be in London tomorrow and will try one I think low carb was just a fad in the UK and faded didn't it? When I was living there it became the latest craze, I worked in a Starbucks in the city and our decaf americano and puring cream sales went through the roof! When I go home now it is rare I see something labelled low carb.
