Morning all,

We have a fancy new Lidl here in Lincoln now - much nicer inside than the older ones. Anyway, I know most us us know about the high protein rolls, but whils buying some yesterday I see they also now do " Low GI" bread. It's lighter in texture than the rolls and seems to be mixed with walnuts.

Just thought I'd mention it :)

Ah, no, quite right it's not :(
 
Depends how low carb you are it may be to high for some but not others
 
I have tried this bread recently but give it up quickly when I discovered when testing that it raised my blood sugers.Tested over 5 days.
