Hi Kim,

There are many store bought salad dressings, including ranch and caesar, that are suitable. They nearly all have sugar in them, but in such tiny amounts, that it's not a problem.

Just get into the habit of reading labels religiously. I seem to remember Dr A saying that salad dressings are fine as long as they have less than 2g carbs per serve. They all seem to have a little sugar in the contents. Just make sure that sugar is way down the list of ingredients. I use a Caesar dressing that has sugar in it, but has only .03g carbs per 30g (1 oz) serve.

As for aspartame, Dr A says use with caution because of questions about its safety. I don't use it because I don't like the taste!

HTH
