Question Carb Solutions shakes

Has anyone tried the Carb Solutions pre mixed shakes? I used to drink them every morning for breakfast. The label said that they only contain 3 grams of carbs. I am just wondering if anyone knows whether they have hidden carbs or not.

One word... ack!!! I didn't like them and seemed to stall briefly after trying one.

I've heard there are better brands but Atkins (the other that I've tried) is not one of them. It is ack too!!

As with ANY food or product, please do feel free to check for Hidden Carbs using the handy dancy Hidden Carb inspector (we call it the carbulator and rely on it a lot, it's so very useful!).

Check the orange menu bar above, click on Tools, find the Hidden Carb Inspector icon, fill in the calories, the protein and fat grams, and the 'stated' carbs (don't bother with anything else for the simplest most useful answer) and hit that OK button. Very helpful if you suspect hidden carbs (usually in bars, tho if in doubt or new to LowCarb, it's a GOOD thing to check everything).
