The Atkins products are just way too expensive.

Having said that, I do buy the ready-made canned shakes regularly. I like the convenience and the 'quick' breakfast I get from these.

I bought some of the baking mix and I still have it in the cupboard. I use it only occasionally as an additive to a recipe that I use. Otherwise, the soy taste is just not very good.

I have also purchased some of the sauces: teriyaki and bbq and steak sauce. I do like these and they last a long time so yo don't mind paying so much for these.

I have gotten in to the creative side of cooking things myself, instead of buying them. I save money and I get to try little experiments in my kitchen. It really is great fun. I have tried several of the recipes here on this site and on many other sites and I buy a new low carb cookbook about once every other month for fun.
