Costco also has a much better price for Atkins Advantage Bars (15 for $29.99 - only $2.00/bar). They have splenda 2 boxes - I can't remember the price off-hand, but it was much cheaper than anywhere else. They had a taste test of the Genisoy bars today - yum!

GNC has some good sales - e.g. better price for Atkins syrup than I've seen anywhere - 3.99. I've also noticed they're getting more items in.

ERNURSE - how do you make your own Divinci-like syrups?

Hers one that is pretty good...


Chocolate Syrup

1 1/2 cups Splenda sweetener
1 cup cocoa
dash salt
1 cup hot water
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 teaspoons guar gum

-In a medium saucepan, over medium heat, add Splenda, cocoa & salt.
-Gradually add the hot water, stirring to keep mixture smooth.
-Cook,stirring constantly until it boils; cook & stir for 3 minutes.
-Remove from heat & stir in vanilla & guar gum{put back on stove if it doesn't thicken right away}
-Cool to room temperature then pour into a sealable container & refrigerate.
-Makes 2 cups syrup.*** 2.7 carbs minus 0.9 gr. fiber= 1.8 carbs per T.
-Good to use on low carb ice cream, white chocolate pudding or drizzled on cheesecakes & waffles...the ideas are endless

there are many different kinds, but i only experimented with Raspberry, Strawberry, and Maple
.........and still testing!

Pizza
 

F.Y.I, Panago just started serving low carb pizza!!!,
I never tried it yet but I can't wait.

Edmonton Tea and Coffee (near 111 st and 105 Ave) has Sugar-free and regular DaVinci Syrups for $11 each. The bottle is the size of a wine bottle.

Low Carb Gallery
 

Hi all,
I just got back from Edmonton and stocked up at Low Carb Gallery 104 st and 51 ave. I got Da Vinci syrups, Steel sauces, Atkins sauces. They had a good selection and were willing to ship stuff to me in Medicine Hat. I would recommend them. Also, got stuff at a place on 82nd ave and 108 street.

Urban Fare (96 Ave and 142 St) has Atkins products, including teriyaki and steak sauces, pasta and rice sides, and bars.

I also found fresh edamame beans there.

Champions grocery on Jasper has Ross Chocolate bars for $1.69, They also have much more in low carb/sugar-free chocolate bars.

Also, their bison meat is reasonably-priced. It's a great change from beef!

dyberrah

Yes, another place to get it all!
 

Lo Carb Delight on Whyte Ave. has too many items to name - all low carb and all natural and more than 80% of the items are lower priced than elsewhere. The owner is knowledgeable - 30 years following Aktins way of living!

Davinci Syrups
 

Yes, I know of three places that have sugar free DaVinci's: Lo-Carb Delight on Whyte Ave. The Low Carb Gallery on 51st. Ave and Arabicup coffee shop in Sherwood Park Mall. :)

Protein Platters
 

Yes, MacDonalds has Protein Platters for Breakfast, and dinner - quite good because you get REAL eggs - however, I heard a rummor that they may disconntinue them. And many of the "gold card items" at GNC(lower price with card) are still more expensive than regular prices at some other places like Save-On, Lo-Carb Delight and some health stores.

I found 3 different hot cereals at Lo-Carb Delight on Whyte and 2 are so good I almost crave them in the morning. One is like my old favorite, Cream of Wheat, only this is Cream of Flax, and one is like a smooth Red River/Oat/Wheat and is called Flax O Meal. The great news is that they are all instant - just add hot water and of course cream!!!

hi everyone! I've been reading this site for a while, but this is my first post. I wanted everyone to know that I found a great place to buy food the other day. The old McKernan IGA, which I think is now called McKernan Market (76 ave, between 114 st and 111 st, next to the fire hall) has a big display of sugar free items right by the cashier. I saw some Steel's, Ketogenics, and I think some other stuff also. Prices looked to be real good. Has anyone found any more stores lately? I know there are new low carb stores opening up all the time, and I'd like to go check them out. Thanks!

I just got back from Edmonton and while there I checked out Low Carb Gallery on 51st Ave. They have a fairly good selection of products (Davinci syrups/torani syrups, sugar free jones pop, gold lite sugar free chocolate chips, steels products and carbolite etc. etc. I also went to Maximum Nutrition on St. Albert Trail and they have a fairly good selection too. They told me that they are getting sugar free marshmellows in shortly.

Since I cannot afford to shop at specialty shops, I have discovered that Superstore carries lot's of low carb products, bread, syrups, chocolate bars. Their latest additions are Hellman's Carb Wise Barbeque sauce (2 flavours) and Hellman's Carb Wise Salad Dressings. Every time I shop there I discover something new. I also get my coconut oil there as well in the east indian ethnic food section.
