Myron Menaker - 07 Mar 2004 13:38 GMT If you like ketchup....
I bought a bottle of the new Heinz "One-Carb" ketchup yesterday. It's really quite good. I doubt whether I could distinguish it from real ketchup! It's a bit more expensive than ordinary Heinz, but only half as costly as Atkins or Walden Farms "no-carb!"

PS Someone is gonna ask....it's sweetened with Sucralose!

Teeb - 07 Mar 2004 15:50 GMT I'll have to try it.. I tried the Atkins once and thought it was so gross.. nothing like ketchup. I was going to throw it out then ended up thinning it out a bit a using it as a barbecue sauce.

It was on special at Stop and Shop (CT) the other day. With the reduced price, it cost the same as the same-size squeeze bottle of regular Heinz ketchup.
I bought some, but haven't tried it. Since turkey breast was also on special, I'll be going through quite a bit of Russian dressing this week, so the ketchup special was fortuitous.

Oh sniff. I keep looking, but seeing the label under its shelf space is as close as I have come. There was a sign saying S&S was out of that item, but it never came in--unless it disappeared REALLY quickly. I have looked every time I have been there--and that is very frequent.

Of course, I contributed to the panic buying, and bought 2!
My cold turkey with Russian dressing was great! (Not to make you feel bad or anything...)

(Not to make you feel > bad or anything...) Well, I have been looking practically every day. I guess that means I'm off to hunt again. Mebbe three stores. Mebbe four. I WANT it! Then I have to go down and throw out my HC stuff to make way for my clutter of LC stuff. That HC stuff (like pastas) is rather old, and not any temptation, but it takes up space.

The Stop & Shop in Hudson had two bottles of it left on Friday. (I bought them both. Felt a little guilty, wondering if I should leave one for someone else. But didn't.)
Haven't tried it yet.

And you know, I checked S&S down there when I was near one "just in case". Now I'm unhappy. Guess I'm gonna have to go out in the snow showers and do some scouting.

Teeb - 08 Mar 2004 14:20 GMT Hey all is fair in love and low carb, lol. Before lowcarb tortillas were made by the other companies (and better) I would buy up the large La Tortilla ones whenever I found them, because I just liked the larger ones and they were hard to find. One store carried them but sometimes they'd have them, sometimes not. I bought 10 packages of them one day, all they had left.. they freeze really well.. didn't feel the least bit guilty either.

emkay - 10 Mar 2004 01:29 GMT > You and hubby should look for the SMALL bottles when scanning for >ketchup. That is the only size of OneCarb ketchup that they carried. And the label doesn't look like the regular, mostly-white Heinz label either. In fact, when I looked for it recently, I stared intently at the rows and rows of Heinz variants, and didn't see the low-carb one. Disappointed, I decided to read the shelf-labels to see if the store at least carried it sometimes, and was out of it at the moment. I found the "one-carb" label, looked right above it, and there were two bottles of the stuff right on the shelf. I had skipped right over them in my origuinal search, because they didn't look like what I thought I was looking for: the label is green and red, and the print is kind of swirly, rather than the black-block-letters on white background that all of the other Heinz products had.

Cubit - 08 Mar 2004 03:16 GMT I checked for it again today at the supermarket.
Nothing here in the Silicon Valley.
Their website sells various Ketchups online, but not the new 1 carb stuff.

Thanks, this stuff IS good:) Frankly most of the low carb stuff I have tried is too yucky. I had this today with my LC meatloaf, fresh green beans and I was in heaven!

From the archives: ------------- 12 oz. Tomato paste (I use Contadina) 12. oz water 1 tsp onion powder 1/2 cup white vinegar 5 Equal tablets (or 4-5 splenda packets/8-10 bulk tsp splenda, or to taste) 1 Tablespoon salt
Preparing Dissolve Equal tablets in water (I use tablets instead of packets because they have 1/5 the grams). Combine all ingredients. Tastes a lot like real Heinz to me.
54 grams in the entire recipe (using PP counts). 1gram per tablespoon (about 1/4 regular Heinz). -------------
If you want to use splenda, try 4-5 packets (or 8-10 tsp bulk), or season to taste. (54 g + 5 splenda packets + 59 g which doesn't change the gram count per tablespoon significantly at all).
I added a tsp of garlic and cayanne to mine-- made it seem more like the spicy Hunt's brand which I like better than Heinz. Oh, I also added a tsp or so of xanthan gum to help it thicken up to the proper consistency.

Yup, made it before and it's good....however, I really like the convenience of buying ketchup in the container and this product tastes very good, unlike some of the LC ketchup I have purchased in the past. Also, this was not expensive, another selling point. I get tired of making everything from scratch too:)

I am wondering: does anyone know if this One-Carb ketchup has any ingredients that would be considered no-no's by Atkins? Besides the alternate sweetener, does it have any sugars...like the "ose's"--dextrose, etc. or ..."dextrin's" , fructose, corn syrup, or even hydrogenated oils?
