Soy Nuts - Ranch Flavor
 
I would like your opinions here PLEEEEZE !!!

I bought a bag of DrSoy Ranch flavored Soy Nuts, boy are they ever good. Now, here's the nutritional value:

Portion: 1 oz

Calories: 150
Fat 7 g
Sodium 280
Carbs 7 g
Fiber 4 g
Sugars 1 g
Protein 13 g


Do you think this will stall weight loss b/c of the salt ? I'm not talking about eating the entire bag in one sitting but having it as a snack at night. It really cures the munchies when you want something flavorful and crunchy.

Whats your view on soy nuts ?

Thanks everyone :help:

I love these...the BBQ flavor is great too. The ones that I buy are made by Glen Soy

On my last round with this wol I bought reg roasted soynuts bulk. After inductions I would eat them as snacks. I even used them in my salads for some crunchyness.

Ok, how much are they and where you get em ? At the health food store, online or the regular grocery store. I would like to try some.
See , someone mentions food and I want it .

Soy nuts are available in my local food markets...and in the produce markets in bulk. Health food stores also carry them.

Ok, thank you .I may have seen them but didnt know they were low in carbs. Are they expensive?

Cincin, I buy mine in a local grocery store, and for 5 oz which is alot it cost me $1.59

Some brands are eh so you might have to try a few.

I love them, but can't eat any Soy as it led to my hypothyroidism.

Meijers had some spicy salsa kind , they were 9 gms carbs and 2 gms fiber .too much for me. I wasn't sure what you guys said the carbs were .Now I see the brand they have at Meijers is way too high in carbs. I will keep looking .

Cincin, there are alot of different kinds. The ones I buy have 9 gms of carbs w/5 gms of fiber per ounce... so thats 4 gms per serving and since these things are so light, an ounce serving is a decent amount.

They also have chocolate soy nuts but the carbs in them is very high ... DARN!

You'll probably have to go to a few different stores, and your local grocery store probably has them too and less expensive.

You just gotta put your hunting gear on....but its worth it :)

I'm wondering if DrSoy has a website and you can order them from there ? check it out.

YUP they do have a website

http://www.drsoy.com/

Thanks, they have a store locator and they have them at the Meijers that I was at and the krogers grocery store thats nearest to my home.

the bulf ones are even less. for a pound they are $1.89. I usually buy a half a pound or so, and that last like two weeks. The plain salted ones have enev less carbs!

Glad I saw this. I live in the 'boonies' but there are 4 stores in the nearest town that carry these. This is great, thanks!
