No, it's something quite brown and you just sprinkle it on the cheese; its not a cooking sauce. Arrhh, what's it called. Seen it on an advert on TV. Never mind, I think I'll just stick with the cheese
I think you mean Worcestershire sauce.

Yes I do, thank you so much. It's been bothering me all day!
I've had the testing strips put on repeat prescription after telling them I need to find out what i can or can't eat. I'd told them how shocked I was that my usual prorridge breakfast sent me sky high and they accepted it without question, so well worth asking your doctor. They're only giving me 50 at time but I requested a repeat after 2 weeks so have had 100 from them in 3 weeks
You lucky thing, I asked the nurse the other week. I said I wont to be proactive, and find out which and what foods I can eat. Why cant I have them. She said you'll have to take it up with the government.
Yes, it does seem expensive but you don't use it in anywhere near the same quantities as wheat flour.
Don't worry Scottie, tomorrow is a new day.

I tsp of worcestershire sauce has 1.1g of carb. (Loads of potassium and sodium).

Its a mine field isn't it Scottie. I was stood in Asda the other day with with one pot of yogurt in each hand, trying to compare the SMALL ! print, boy do they make it small. I think they should surply a magnifying glass. Lol
On the plus side Scottie we are both reading the small print. Don't worry we will get there.

Won't be bothering with that then!
1.1g isn't a lot for a tsp, and it makes a big difference to the taste
Vanilla essence, good idea. Hope you like it.

I don't know how much of the sodium etc is meant to be in a daily allowance but you're hardly likely to spread a teaspoon. I would still have it to be honest as well.

It certainly is Milly, hopefully we can spur each other on. It has hit me this last couple of days that I am in this for the long haul and nobody can do it for me. After all these years, it's taken being frightened I was going to die to make me realise that unless I change my life, that could possibly happen sooner than I want it to. Scary.
Won't be bothering with that then!
A teaspoon is a LOT to have on one slice of toast!

That's exactly what happened to me in the middle of January, a real scare that finally motivated me to sort myself out
Bluetit talks a lot of sense. On the yoghurt front, Manor Farm make a natural smooth and creamy yoghurt - best I've tasted by miles.

So would I. I add it to lots of things I'm cooking, and it's gorgeous on a roast dinner, I love it! I don't suppose I ever have more than half a tsp though, it's very strong
It's not vegetrain ! The veggie verson is not very good taste wise .. So don't know what your verson would taste like !Won't be bothering with that then!

I like Yeo Valley Organic Greek Yoghurt - 6.2g carbs per pot. It tastes great with blueberries or a little stewed apple and cinnamon. Re the Crispbreads I have Ryvita Crackerbreads which are 3.7g carbs per slice - the plain ones are tasty when spread with peanut butter or Philadelphia Cheese and makes a quick and relatively low carb snack! They also do cheese ones but I've not tasted them yet!!
