Morning all…

Just been introduced to Tassimo Coffee Pods…do they have a sugar content?

L’OR XL Intense plus semi skimmed milk.

It all depend which ones you choose. The simple black coffee ones have no sugar, then the milky ones vary, for example a cappuccino has 2.6g carbs, but a caramel latte has 10.6g carbs right up to the hot chocolate which has 20.4g !
If you want to look at all of them, I suggest downloading the app called Nutra Check.

Edit to comment on your edit! The L’Or XL intense are sugar free so you just need to consider the carbs in the milk you add.

Spicy food which is too hot. Nasty people who have no idea on your life journey but feel the need to comment and be cruel.
I used to have the coffee pods but the skimmed milk even if decaf was too much in carbs. So stopped.
If you have a normal bean to cup machine you can do one shot and use unsweetened almond milk, or just black.
I find if the caffeine content too high that also affects the blood sugar.
Just read everything and then try and test.
