I'm waiting for the one female person on this forum over the age of sixty who has been diabetic for a decade who has had a couple three children who perhaps cannot run daily anymore to tell me how they are able to tolerate the stuff. And then, because i am a woman and because I won't put Splenda in my body....

Just sayin

Those of you that can`t get it, maybe have a word with the manager of the shop & ask them if they would order some in for you, the manager at my local Holland & Barrett orders mine, I just have to ring on a Tuesday before 9am to let her know how many I want.

I found some lowish ice cream here in Germany at long last and just in time for the next heatwave :-0

It's 14 g carbs per 100g in the chocolate flavor and 12 g in the vanilla flavor, tried some and it's not a spiker!

A sad day for me.. Just got this reply from Waitrose...

"Thanks for contacting us about Oppo ice cream, Mark. I'm sorry you're disappointed not to be able to find it at our Worthing branch.

I'm afraid that due to low demand for this product at our Worthing branch we no longer stock it there. Although we always try to offer a wide range of products in order to give plenty of choice, we do have limited shelf space. Sadly this does mean replacing slower-selling lines, and on occasions such as this we have to disappoint some of our customers.

The nearest branch to Worthing that stocks Oppo is Hove - if you were considering making a journey there, I’d suggest contacting them on 01273 329901 for up-to-date stock information.

I'm sorry I don't have better news. I appreciate that it may not be convenient to travel to Hove so you might wish to try Frank's Diabetic vanilla Ice Cream, which is stocked at Worthing and might be a suitable alternative. If you need any help finding it please feel free to ask one of our Partners - the product code we use for this product is 443122, which will make it easier for them to find."


To which I replied...

"Well I hope you are no longer stocking "Frank's Diabetic Ice Cream" if this news flash is correct

https://www.diabetes.org.uk/About_u...om-today/?_ga=1.239545611.96884436.1469029345

Also the carbohydrate content of that particular item is higher than some tubs of Haagen Daaz Ice cream so would certainly not be in the slightest suitable for this particular Diabetic.
I am surprised to hear that Waitrose is not aware of this new regulation and that you stock such a badly labelled item. Maybe you could take the Frank's rubbish out of the store and replace it with some decent Oppo?"

Let's see what happens...
