Hi there,
just a quick question, I am about 5 or 10 pounds away from goal, cant make up my mind yet....lol
anyway, I know there is a lot of confustion over lc products, my question is, once I have reached my goal weight,
I was debating on buying some products from the lc store here in toronto, like lc tortillas or muffin mixes etc, I would like to get these in for over holidays just for something different.
It wouldnt be a everyday thing, but trying to prepare in advance for christmas
so not tempted to munch on other stuff, dont think I will but nice to have a change, as usually xmas morning, we will make muffins etc........something quick and easy..........
Do you use these products at all???
thank you all

Do you mean the store on Yonge near Lawrence? I was just there on Monday.

I won't use mixes anymore. They're absurdly expensive, and the one I tried a few months back was horrible! It was a pizza crust mix, and I think the brand name was Carb Rite. Terrible! I would have been happier with a simple pizza quiche "crust" or a crust made from flax and ground nuts.

I liked the Oroweat tortillas you used to be able to get at Zehr's/Superstore, but I think they've been discontinued. I got Toufayan brand at the LC store, and they're about the same.

Congrats on being close to goal.

Thanks.

I was there mainly to get a few bottles of Da Vinci syrup. I decided to buy cookie dough and caramel flavours.

Carbalose flour was on sale, so I grabbed some of that. Look for it near the cash register. I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it yet, but I know I've seen some recipes in the Kitchen forum.

I also got some Dreamfields pasta, but that's for my mom.
