Hi because of @Brunneria discovery that gluten free is helping her with her health issues and how much better it is working for her, I decided to have a look at the gluten free foods in my local Tesco.
To my horror, included in the ingredients, there, they used potato starch.
My brain automatically shelved the idea that this was good for me!
My nemesis is spuds!
Dare not touch them even with an eleven foot pole!
But my question is, how many carbs are in potato starch?
Is it like flour, wheat and such? Which are my intolerant!
I would usually try something different that should be as good as gluten free, but I'm certain it's a real baddie even in small amounts.
I await responses!
Ta!
