Why is Thick It Up advertised but when it is added to my cart,, it says product doesn’t exist?

Comment on What About Cheat Days on Your Low-Carb Lifestyle? – CarbSmart Podcast Episode 14 by Vince Smith

This episode is such a powerful and practical take on the concept of cheat days! I appreciate how you’ve reframed indulgence versus cheating—it’s a much healthier mindset that respects both the body and the progress made in a low-carb lifestyle. The analogy with addiction is eye-opening and really drives home the potential pitfalls of regular cheat days. Your tips for managing cravings and the emphasis on creating a sustainable “new normal” are incredibly helpful. Plus, the Backwards Pizza recipe is genius! Thanks for sharing such insightful advice—I’m inspired to approach low-carb living with even more intention.

In reply to Ruth Akonom. Dana says that it should last in the refrigerator for a while. You are making it in smaller batches without preservatives but at least a couple of months should work.

In reply to Bill Carney.

This true of the flavored rums, for sure! Malibu, for instance, has 5 grams per shot. Plain Bacardi has no sugar, but their Razz, Vanilla, Coco, and lemon-lime have added sugar. Once again, the rule is “If it tastes sweet and is not specifically sweetened with a sugar-free sweetener, it’s sugary. But a shot of regular Bacardi in a glass of Diet Coke should be no problem, except for the “inhibits lipolysis” thing.

BTW, this also applies to all the sweetened vodkas, whiskeys, etc.

Happy Whatever-You-Celebrate!

Avoid most rums – many of them have a lot of added sugar, for flavor and coloring. One popular “premium” brand has more sugar than Kool-Aid.

In reply to Debbi. We don't know if they have changed their ingredients recently. If you are looking for low-carb maple-flavored syrups, we suggest these current syrups available at Amazon.com.

I am thinking of trying these, but no one has mentioned what kind of syrup they used. I tried CarbQuick before and found it too salty. That was years ago, and I am wondering if they changed the ingredients.

Love this recipe. Making it again today but don’t have a lot of time so I will cook them on high for 3 hours and hope that works! Will bake and freeze half of them for later. That is. Great tip.
