YUK! I always read the labels and check for hidden junk. The EAS shakes and The Atkins bars do not contain HFCS or any other suspicious ingredents, so at least those are usable when the need arises.<BR/><BR/>I tried uploading to blogger and it would get to 100% and then do nothing. I'd wait and wait. I finally gave up on it.<BR/><BR/>Your Bruno is a cutie!!Amy Dunganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06125706233425564277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31055569.post-1066462428934788602007-09-12T11:01:00.000-06:002007-09-12T11:01:00.000-06:00I may be posting this twice, the window flickered....I may be posting this twice, the window flickered. Just ignore one.<BR/><BR/>I was in WalMart about a year ago and starving. So I went and grabbed an EAS bar. A glance at the label revealed High Fructose Corn Syrup! It really made me mad. I cannot eat HFCS due to a form of colitis. It kills me. Thank God I checked the label, they USED to be a safe food.<BR/><BR/>Re the upload thing, it took me about four times longer to upload to Blogger than YouTube. I thought I was going to have to go the YouTube route too. Try, if you can, in non-peak hours like in the morning. I'm looking forward to your next one!<BR/><BR/>I'll probably be doing another this evening.

Kent Altena (I hope I spelled his last name right) pointed out that there might be glycerin in them. Sure enough.. it's the second ingredient. That probably accounts for most of the carbs, but it still doesn't make me 100% comfortable with the counts. I want FULL DISCLOSURE!! :0)Amy Dunganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06125706233425564277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31055569.post-75602513149752471812007-09-11T12:13:00.000-06:002007-09-11T12:13:00.000-06:00As for cravings for chocolate.

I avoid them because of sugar alcohols. <BR/><BR/>I find that many dark chocolates have very few net carbs. It's real sugar but in small doses. I eat a square or two daily.Daronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09531762907459171427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31055569.post-52646366215492406912007-09-11T12:11:00.000-06:002007-09-11T12:11:00.000-06:00I too have called and written to companies that ma...I too have called and written to companies that make low carb bars who's net carbs don't add up. I also continually get the run-around. Often they say it is determined by professional dieticians in some scientific manner that they do not understand. My typical response is to ask to speak with someone in their lab. I have yet to speak with anyone who can explain the forumula.<BR/><BR/>I don't think that it is unreasonable to ask them to back the claims on their package. So, why is it so hard to get the info? I have a feeling that these companies are intentionally vague because they are stretching the legal limits to make their claims.Daronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09531762907459171427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31055569.post-26265460573937643632007-09-11T07:36:00.000-06:002007-09-11T07:36:00.000-06:00Thanks former donut junkie!

The digital camera files are huge and I get less than 3 minutes for 100 mb.
