Re: What are they adding to low fat foods that ++Carbs?

[Guest guest]

There are 2 things that are used a lot to add flavor to food - fat and

sugar. So if you get something that is low fat it is generally high in

sugar content. By the same token, if you get something low in sugar you

may have a higher fat content.

They use sugars and emulsifiers (binders / thickeners) to replace the " mouth

feel " that you get from food items that are not fat-modified. Our mouths

are very in-tune with food textures, and if stuff feels " off " , we won't eat

it.

On a low-carb regimen, fats are ok if they are not trans-fats. And even if

you aren't on a low-carb diet, you generally get much more satisfaction from

a smaller portion of a real food than something that has been produced in a

chemistry lab.

What are they adding to low fat foods that ++Carbs?

OK for years I've noticed that whenever something says " Low Fat "

watch out! The carb count sometimes doubles even triples. Does

anyone know what in the world they add to foods that make them low

fat yet increase the carbs so much?

I usually end up either not buying it period or going with the

regular instead of the low fat.

Seems like a cruel joke on the masses to me.

Gotta get yer flavor somewhere, now, doncha?

And it was very successful in fattening up an entire nation in the

last 20 yrs. Green box = safe. Go. Eat as much as you want.

Take a look at the sugar grams- they usually are very high. When fat

is removed they have to add something to make it tasty, so they dump

in the sugars.
