as anyone tried the veggie straws from Costco
68 straws =
240 calories
13 gr off fat
520 sodium
30 grs of carbs
o sugar

if you just have a 20 for a snack your cutting this by a 1/3... i so hope this is good for me if not that means i cheated today,

also i have a question,, and i'm remembering no question is stupid,,, but is fresca the same as pop?

 No good.

They are super high in carbs, and fried.

Fresca is soda also.

No on the veggie straws for me. If I'm gonna take the carb hit I want some nutrition for it. I don't know when your surgery was but if you're far enough out, some light popcorn will give you salt and crunch and is a whole grain. Pork rinds are no carb but the protein is the wrong kind and are high fat/salt. Look for the cheese crisp recipe on here.
        



    
Open yourself to possibility and possibility will present itself.

Even 'snacks' need to be protein first. Not only are these high-carb, they are zero-protein. And remember---fat is worst for us when eaten WITH CARBS.

how far out are you?  can you only eat 20?  I have bought them and love them.  Eating only 20 is only  80 calories, 10 carbs, 170 grams of sodium - so no they aren't terrible if you are far out enough to be having a snack with some carbs.  If you are a newbie that needs to be sticking with protein, then they are no good for you yet/ 

And, yes Fresca is as you call is Pop or as I call it soda. I believe it is diet though - so again, it depends on how far out you are.  I drink diet coke every day

 I never liked the taste of those things!
Also if something has bubbles - then consider it pop

Packing peanuts probably have more flavor and no calories at all.  I tried them before, they are just not worth the carbs.
