low carb wine

[jdl22]

Hasn't this gone far enough? I'm watching MSNBC and in between all the horrible news abroad there is a story about how there is a new kind of wine that is low in cards. Wow.

I've seen these products available in low carb:
Ben and Jerry's ice cream
Beer
bagels (WTF?)
wine

where will it stop?

when people start dying of carb-deficiency linked diseases? /images/graemlins/grin.gif or when the next fad comes along. remember tcby frozen yogurt, the tip of the fat-free diet spear?

[Czech_Razor]

what's a "nick?"

[CORed]

Well, before Atkins became so popular, low carb wines were just called "dry".

Or is somebody adding nutra-sweet to dry wine to make a low carb sweet wine? Yuck!

Obviously you aren't diabetic. I am. The one thing that shoots by blood sugar through the roof is carbs. For type one diabetics, they count how many carbs they are going to eat, and then inject the required insulin (at least some do). I am type 2. If I eat more than 85-100 carbs in a meal, then I feel like I have razor blades flowing through my blood vessels. If my blood sugar goes over 800, I risk coma.

So for some of us, the low carb movement isn't a fad, it's survival.
