Default Waah! Can't find any SF Swiss Miss. What the heck are you guys drinking?

All I could find was "Swiss Miss, No Sugar Added" at a whopping 10 carbs per serving. But some of you have posted about SF Swiss Miss. Is there a difference? Is there actually something I can enjoy drinking this winter season? And if so, where do you buy it?

TIA!!!

They carry Diet Swiss Miss at Safeway here. It has fewer carbs than the no sugar added variety.

I bet we could make our own hot chocolate mix pretty easily with cocoa and Splenda, huh? Cocoa is pretty low in carbs. Anyone tried this? I might have to do some experimenting tonight to come up with the right mixture.

You can also use Lc shakes for cocoa, or soy milk.

I find the Diet swiss miss at walmart I think, that or safeway. It is in a box with pink writing. and only comes in the envalopes not the canaster. Dig through the cocoa supply of other stores.


Hilary - There is typicaly a hot cocoa recipe on the coco powder. Instead of the sugar use artificial sweetner, and instead of the milk use cream or diluted cream.

A-ha! No wonder all the Swiss Miss stuff I was looking at had a whopping 10g of carbs! I'll have to keep my eye out for the "diet" version. Previously I had only seen the "no sugar added" kind.

I found my diet Swiss Miss with calcium at Fred Meyer. Haven't tried it yet so I don't know how good it is. It says it has 2g of suger which i'm assuming is the splenda, but I could be wrong:

Total Fat 0g
Total carbs are 4g
Total Fiber 1g
Total Protein 2g
