Guest guest Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 Just a note to say that we found some strawberry/rhubarb pie which only has 13 carbs per serving. I can cut back a notch on the meal in order to be able to enjoy this treat.

Guest guest Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 Dave, Again, the secret is to quit with only 1 normal slice of the pie. Moderation will buy you many, many things.

Guest guest Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 Hi Pat, Crystal found it at Kings Sooper (a Kroger subsiderary). I will find out what brand it really is. It was in their bakery but I also realize that, as many of them as they seem to put out each day, they do not make the pies themselves.
