Carb Countdown milk
 

Has anybody tried the "Carb Countdown" milk?? The other day, I had the absolute worst craving for milk, of all things! I ended up drinking a half cup of 1% milk, which had 6 grams of carbs, and took away the craving. I thought about trying the Carb Countdown stuff, but I'm afraid that it tastes nothing like milk! :(

At first it doesn't It tastes kind of like powdered milk. Once you get used to it though it isn't bad at all. You can also try Soy slender. The vanilla type is 1g net and tastes alot like regular milk. It doesn't have that soy milk taste at all.

1% has alot more carbs then whole. Get the whole milk carb countdown or try the chocolate.

Thanks! I never dreamed I would be craving milk, but I'll have to try some!

i have the carb countdown 2% white milk. i like it. to me it tastes just like milk. i use it on my atkins cereal and for cooking.

I use it instead of water to mix up my protein shakes. It makes a big difference.

The chocolate milk is kinda thick and tastes like a milk shake! I missed my milk is this is a blessing..I am introducing it slowly though to see if it has any bearing on the pound I keep gaining and losing.

The Carb Countdown chocolate milk is awesome! i drink that for a snack every day!

I too love the carb coutdown milk. I used to drink the soy slender I thought it was fine but it actualy made my cereals taste awful. It tasted nothing like milk. I can't tell the difference between real milk and carb countdown but then again it has been 9 months.

I buy it and put it on my Atkins cereal. It does taste like regular milk to me but I wonder if it tastes a little sweet to anyone else? I haven't been able to figure out if it is the cereal or the milk that is tasting really sweet to me.

The CC whole milk is really creamy. I have 1/4 cup with my low carb granola sometimes.

The chocolate used to taste better to me. Recently its had more of a whey protein taste. I wonder why.

Its still good though and I have it pretty regularly.

I LOVE the chocolate, I drink a glass every morning for breakfast. I also use the 2% white milk for cooking and cereal and my husband does not have a clue! I have been using it for over 3 weeks now and he has no idea so I figure it must taste the same to him or he is just being a very courteous husband.

I pour the chocolate into ice cube trays and freeze, when they start to set, I put toothpicks in them and eat them as fudgecicles. They are really good. I also mix it with a SMALL amount of carb options ice cream and make milk shakes. Sure helps when you are craving something sweet.

If you dont mind my asking a silly question

how do you keep the toothpicks from falling? I attempted this once and made a big mess since my toothpicks wouldnt stay upright until it froze lol.

I've never been too crazy about "plain" milk of any kind. I've tried the "Carb Countdown," and it is good in coffee, or in LC cereal.

On the other hand, the Carb Countdown Chocolate milk is awesome! It does taste like a delicious milkshake! The only problem is that it sells out very quickly in my neighborhood.

When I make popsicles for the kids I put a piece of plastic wrap over the tray and then put the toothpicks in. HTH! :)

You can tell the difference if you have recently had milk, but I LOVE milk and have had no trouble switching over.

And the chocolate stuff ... mmm .... sure beats the lowfat version: chocolate syrup in skim milk.

carb countdown milk!!!!
 

Hi. Dear husband took me down to Bellingham last weekend where I bought low carb tortilla's, Atkins Cereal and Carb Countdown milk. OMG!!! I have died and gone to heaven. Just to be able to have cereal in the morning, is such a treat. I made a protein shake yesturday. Just one tablespoon Soy Isolate and one cup of CC milk. Added a bit of Atkins syrup. (Bought that too.) It was O.K. First time I've been able to get that protein stuff down. I'll have to go again this week. Kind of a hassle. Anyone know where I can get that milk up here? Thx. Suzanne. P.S. Next time I will buy some Chocolate CC. Could I freeze it do you think?

vicki B in my opinion its the cereal. In fact the cereal that I am now enjoying sat in my cabinet nearly untouched because coupled with the soy slender it was way to sweet. I still think the cereal is sweet but the carbcountdown milk helps.

I use CC every morning in my coffee and in my Deep dish pizza quiche.

Thanks for all your responses! :) I went out and bought the CC milk yesterday. I bought the reduced-fat regular milk and the chocolate. I must admit, I was pleasantly surprised! The reduced-fat was a little "creamier" than I'm used to, as we always drank 1% or skim. I think I'll get used to it really fast, though. I liked the taste, and think it will be something I can adjust in no time! I'm not much of a cereal person, I just like to drink milk! Now the chocolate was yum! :yum: It was more like a treat to me!
