This has 5 net carbs per serving (1/5th of box) but should only be eaten once a week or less.  Available so far locally:  spaghetti, rotini, penne, lasagne.  It's not recommended to buy lasagna noodles online (too many break).
(Walmart / Sherm's / Safeway / Fred Meyer / Amazon.com)
Picture
Old-Fashioned Oatmeal (select your favorite brand.)  Avoid purchasing the "quick oats" versions because they will cause more problems with blood sugar levels due to the low level of natural fiber found in quick oats.
Available in most, if not all, grocery stores.

Uncle Sam Flaxseed and Whole Wheat Flaked Cereal
I'd never heard of this before we started low-carbing, and it doesn't have as much flavor as other cereals, but if you want some crunch added to your yogurt parfaits, this would work!  Add vanilla to your almond milk, and sprinkle cereal with erythritol or xylitol for a more "sugary" taste.

Orville Redenbacher's SmartPop! Butter Popcorn
(look for the butter flavor that is 94% fat free - 33-gram sized bags.  The kettle corn SmartPop isn't very good, in our opinion.)

Nature's Hollow Sugar Free Strawberry Preservatives

This is for me since I'm pre-diabetic.  Not for my girls or husband.  Expensive!

Smucker's Low Sugar Strawberry Reduced Sugar Preserves
This has even less sugar than the Crofter's Organic Just Fruit Spread on the left!  No artificial sweeteners, but does contain Red 40.  :(  Half the price of the Crofter's version.

Bragg Nutritional Yeast Seasoning
We sprinkle this on veggies, pastas, in casseroles, and more!  Adds more nutrition to your meal without adding a weird taste.  Rounds out the flavors of your meal with a slightly nutty, cheesy taste.  Yum!

Kirkland Signature Organic Natural Peanut Butter (no sugars of any kind)
When shopping for peanut butter, always check the ingredients list to see if it contains added forms of sugar.  Even many of the natural brands contain added sugars, like honey, maple syrup, molasses, etc.  :(

Bragg's Organic Unfiltered Apple Cider Vinegar
(Sherm's)
Amazon.com

Walmart now also carries this as well as the new unfiltered "with the mother" version from Heinz which is less expensive.  If you can't afford the unfiltered "with the mother" version of vinegar, just buy regular apple cider vinegar.

LouAna Coconut Oil:  has no coconut flavor and is best used for baking and cooking.  If you can't afford more expensive coconut oil, this is an okay option.

(Walmart)
Picture
Extra Virgin Coconut Oil:  This is more expensive than LouAna, but my family loves the taste.  High quality!  Use mainly for recipes where you won't be baking or sauteeing it.  Amazon.com

Spectrum Naturals Coconut Spray Oil:  we love this!  It doesn't have a coconut taste, so we use it to spray all pans, bakeware, etc.

While it is less expensive, AVOID this Truvia Baking Blend.  It contains actual sugar, quite a lot of it.  Yikes!
Picture
Truvia
If you decide to use Truvia, this is the one you will want to buy.  It's pretty expensive for a small amount of sweetener.  Make sure you aren't buying the larger bag labeled, "Baking Blend".

Hershey's Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
This works well, although we prefer the Ghiradelli unsweetened cocoa powder.

Hershey's Special Dark Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
Great for those who enjoy the really dark chocolate flavor.  I prefer milk chocolate, but I still prefer this Special Dark over the regular Hershey's in recipes that are sweetened with stevia.

Ghirardelli Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
We prefer this of the cocoa powders we've tried.  Just make sure not to get the sugar-sweetened versions!

Lindt 90% Supreme Dark Chocolate bars
Think "dipping chocolate" vs. chocolate bars for snacks.  These are very dark chocolate, but they can be chopped up for chocolate chips, or used to dip treats in, to coat desserts, or to put one square in your shakes/smoothies for the "chocolate chip" style beverages.

Lily's Chocolate Bars
(sweetened with erythritol and stevia)
Comes in chocolate almond, crispy rice, coconut, and original as well as the NEW milk chocolate, and salted almonds with milk chocolate.  We like the almond and coconut (crispy rice has too many carbs). Sherm's - $3.88 per bar.  Expensive, but pretty delicious!  Just eat one strip or less per day.

NOW brand Glucomannan POWDER
Thickener for gravies, sauces, smoothies, shakes, puddings, and more!  Some people say it feels weird on their throat; if so, switch to using xanthan gum.
(Locally available at Whitestone Vitamins)

Picture
Bob's Red Mill Xanthan Gum
Great to use as a thickener for breads, baking, smoothies and shakes, etc.  Can have a "slimy" feel in puddings; works well with 1/2 glucomannan and 1/2 xanthan gum, especially those who find that gluc feels strange on their throats.  One package will last you for 6-12 months!
