Recommended Posts

Please tell me this is not a new thing. I'm going to buy it because it's a free food who cares if it tastes NASTY LOL. Jk but I have notice since I've been DIEting everything is tasting so much better as long as it goes into my mouth hahaha. So has anyone else seen or tried this Salad Dressing and what do you think of it. 20190527_170727.jpeg 20190527_170735.jpeg

Watered down Tomato paste thickened with xanthan gum?

That looks like some FDA voodoo math--the actual food has been diluted below the per serving reportable standard.

I actually have tried several of these. None of them are super great, but I like the Ranch version the best. I have used it with canned chicken as a kind of chicken salad before.

LOL. Welcome to my world. :) ;)

No it isn't new. Yes, I've come to love a lot of them. My faves are Italian, Sesame Ginger, and Asian. :)

We carry all flavors at the BariatricPal Store. You can buy them for MUCH less in your local grocery store, if available. (It costs us a ton to ship glass and liquid so we need to charge a bit more than we do for other products.)

If a product contains 5 or fewer calories per serving, manufacturers are allowed to round that down to 0 on the Nutrition Facts label.

Oh I sure never knew that Alex, doesn't seem quite fair, does it?
After all, something should not equal nothing in my book.

I agree 100%

Same goes with Zero calories sweeteners like Splenda. Each packet does have (4) calories but under 5 calories per serving.

“According to federal regulations, the terms ‘calorie free,’ ‘free of calories,’ ‘no calories,’ ‘zero calories,’ ‘without calories,’ ‘trivial source of calories,’ ‘negligible source of calories,’ or ‘dietarily insignificant source of calories’ may be used on the label or in the labeling of foods, provided that food contains less than 5 calories per reference amount customarily consumed and per labeled serving,”

I'm personally not worried that these rules are what's causing the worldwide Obesity epidemic 😀

Get outta my head, Alex! That's not your's! Ha! I was thinking the same thing...that if I have to worry about the 12-15cals I'm getting in my Salad Dressing and not counting in MFP, I have a much bigger problem from an order of magnitude proportion. And as they said in Jaws, "We're gonna need a bigger boat..." *snort*

But yeah, the rules of the food industry keep them just a few steps in front of us all the time.

Well yeah I do also, oh wait you must put Water on your salads also LOL ok I get it. We all can be sarcastic. I'm really good at that and if you were drinking calorie free, sugar free , fat free ,carbohydrate free, gluten free and cholesterol free water all day why are you on this page? With that much water in your system you must be as thin as a spaghetti noodle IJS.

Actually it was half way decent. Tasted like a very light (watered down) thousand island. I have NO idea what xanthan gum is but if it's going to help me and not kill me I'll deal with it LOL.

I really don't know what kind of dressing it was all I understood was it was zeros in every category except sodium and it tasted ok, I mean I can deal with it and I'm a foodie. I enjoy food a lot and I'm a great cook. I also found some coconut oil that is 10 calories for 5 pumps. Perfect for egg whites.

My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
