Default Low Carb Doritos

I don't know if any of you have heard, but there is a new Low carb Doritos. They come in all different flavors too. I just saw them at my local Super Wal-mart. They are 6 net grams a serving which is about 14 chips. It may not be really low low carb but it is better than a binge on the real thing.

Great. one more treat to look for )

My super Walmart just got the low carb tortillas in, so it'll probably be a while. They were there one day and about empty of them the next. Glad I bought an extra pack for the freezer.

I know these are probably going to be bad news for me, but I am really looking forward to them! I think I miss Doritos more than I miss bread.

I thought I read somewhere that they were test marketing them in Phoenix then they will be available nationally in May.

They're also making lc Tostitos.

I can withstand the siren song of "low carb" doritos, but when Cheetos comes up with a low carb version, I'm dead. Dead, I tell you.

Trader Joes has come out with Crunchy Cheese Puffs...7 g net carbs in a serving. The serving size is only 13 puffs. They kind of taste like the Cheetos knock-offs that are usually a buck a bag.

Oh no!! I am so afraid I'm gonna go nuts with LC Doritos OR Tostidos! I have realized though, since I've been on this WOE, that I fill up super fast with chips. I can have half a cereal bowls worth, and I don't want anymore.

IF they come out with LC Cheetos, they could spell the kiss of death for my WOE. Be still, my beating tastebuds....

If there's a way for them to do the Cheetos they will

The Doritos aren't bad carb-wise though, even Atkins Crunchers have 5 carbs a serving.

I think regular doritos have 16 carbs for 15 chips? Something along those lines.

I'll have to try the new ones, if only for the fiber of course.
