It has just come to my attention that the following site does not charge postage on their orders -
http://www.dreamfieldsfoods.co.uk/diet-for-diabetes.html, whereas another website offering low carb pasta for diabetics (sorry cannot remember which one off hand) sells Dreamfields Pasta at the same price as the Dreamfields Pasta, but charges postage and packing fees. My advice is to check before parting with your money! :idea:

soaps on telly and people talking about the characters as if they were real.
Not only no P&P, but they accept Pay Pal which means I don't have to get my wallet out of my handbag to get out my card. I've ordered the 5 variety trial pack.

Just a word of warning with Dreamfields pasta. It is only low carb as long as you cook it EXACTLY as it says on the packet - so that it is al-dente. If it is overcooked, even slightly so, the non-digestible starch becomes digestible and will convert to glucose just like any other pasta.

Thanks Dennis for the warning. I've had it several times. I love it. I used to take a half hour bus ride ( free with OAP bus pass) to Wokingham to buy it. The 56g dry weight portion is quite generous too.

I love it and am so glad that I can get it here. I used to stock up with it when I visited my family in New Jersey. I just regret that we aren't offered money off coupons as the Americans are.

Apparently it is, has low Gi index or something, but it seems you need to heed the warning above on how to cook it :wink:
