Hi all!

I work in broadcast media.......and last week, Subway sent over a big
platter of the low-carb wraps for us to try.

They were good....a little small though....but what made me laugh, was that
they sent over another platter of COOKIES along with it!!!

Makes me think that they DON'T QUITE GET THE CONCEPT!!!!!

That's 'cause they were worried that their little sammiches wouldn't
fill you up... Kalish

or maybe they thought that not 100% of your staff was into low-carb?

I had one of the lo-carb wraps and was asked if I wanted chips with that.
No, I don't think they get it.

The wrap was good though.

My point is that there is no law that says that you cannot have a
low-carb wrap if you are not on a low-carb diet. Are you saying that
the only people who would ever eat a low-carb wrap are on low-carb
diets? Do they really taste that bad that only a "dieter" would eat one?

Those low carb wraps are great for convenience on occasion but check the stats
closely -- one of them is something like 480 calories and REAAAAALLLLLLY high
in sodium. Not exactly healthy, per say. But good for times when there's
nothing else for sure...

Actually, I thought mine today tasted quite good. But I admit, I had a
meal deal with diet drink and two cookies with mine.

Mind you, I'm not low carb and sugar doesn't give me cravings.
