Well, YIPPIE! I am going to Cuba in... Woohoo! TEN DAYS! Yeah!

Anyway, I think there are alot of foods for you to eat, specifically fish and seafood. Why are you staying away from the salads? What kind of hotel/resort are you going to? If it is higher end, don't worry about the food. These people have to cater to Canadian and European stomachs on a regular basis.

There is a great site called www.tripadvisor.com that gave me all the info I wanted about my hotel.

As well, I believe Health Canada or the World Health Org can give you info about Cuba, such as there has not been a Hep A outbreak for years, and stuff like that.

I will definitely keep you updated as a low-carber in Cuba...

The BAD news is that everyone on the Tripadvisor site raves about the Cuban pizza, saying it's the best in the world...!!!!

OOH! I forgot to say, the only thing I am bringing into the country is sweetener in packets... this place's economy runs on sugar and rum. I have been advised that there will be no sweetener there!
