LC Panago Pizza?
 

Anyone else seen the ad for panago's LC pizza. I checked the website and they say it's as low as 3.3g per slice (depending on toppings)...but who can eat just one slice of pizza? They don't give the ingredients for the crust so I'm assuming it's just regular crust but real thin?

Yiippee ... they are opening one a few bloks from my house. It will be nice to not have to pull toppings off the pizza. Even three slices could have you in the 10-15 carb range. Not too shabby !!

http://panago.com/ has some info on it

I already looked at the site before I came here. The website doesn't give ingredient info. All they give is carb count per slice for each of the different pizzas.

has anyone tried it yet?

Website information is pretty vague...but interesting to know that they are trying!

Check out the article in today's Vancouver Sun about the pzza

How about a synopsis for those of us who don't live in Vancouver?

You can read the article on-line here:

I can't wait to try it out!

It appears this is not available in all there locations (although the website does not imply any restirctions). We were in Victoria this past weekend, and tried to order from the colwood location. The girl had no idea what we were talking about. She had to check, and came back and said they don't have it. We asked if it was available at all in Victoria, she said no. So we went to Villages (well King Geroges to be exact).

So make sure you call up ahead of time to see if your location is serving it, so you won't be disappointed

so is the dough low carb?

Starmaker, that's what I was wondering. Here's a lil bit of the Vancouver Sun article:

"Green said Panago studied how to reduce the key ingredients that account for the highest carbs in a slice of pizza, and flour is a big culprit.

"We tried to find low-carb alternatives that have the greatest impact on the carb count and the lowest impact on the flavour," he said.

To do that, Panago has replaced flour with a combination of wheat gluten, corn starch and oat fibre. You might expect it to taste like cardboard, but it just tastes like a skinny version of the full deal, and it's still steady enough to hold all those toppings."

I'll be enjoying some for dinner tonight, along with an ice cold Sleeman's clear...
I'll let you know my verdict!

Yeah, let us know, I'm curious as how it tastes. Let us know which topping you decide to get too. Cuz depending on topping carb count changes.

Hubby is itching to get pizza again (he's not LCing but doesn't want to eat it in front of me) so if I can get a lc pizza, I'm sure he'll be happy.

Jade74 - What is Sleeman's Clear?

Sorry I'm not Jade74 - but Sleeman's Clear is beer.
Very good beer, actually. Low carb. Molson's and Labatts make them also. Readily available in the lower mainland.
