Balsamic vinegar

[Hopin2Lose]

I'm bummed. I just learned that this has sugar in it. Grrr... One of my very favorite Atkins snacks (or so I thought) is tomato with mozzarella, balsamic vinegar and olive oil drizzled on top. Is there something else I can use instead which tastes similar or are there sugar free versions? Thanks.

Re: Balsamic vinegar

Bree, do you like rice vinegar? I have lots left from my sushi-making days, and I believe it's legal.

I like it because it is so much milder tasting than cider vinegar.

(I am also a balsamic vinegar lover, too.)

I don't know. I don't think I've ever had it. Hmm...does it taste kinda similar? I'm bummed but I guess it's good that now I know. Oh well.

Thanks.

Re: Balsamic vinegar

No, rice vinegar doesn't taste like balsamic vinegar. It's just has a very mild vinegar taste.

Sorry.

Maybe you could add a tiny bit of splenda to it to give it a slight sweetness?

Re: Balsamic vinegar

Oh well. I didn't think of it as sweet. I'll just try the snack without it and see how it tastes. If I don't like it, I'll find another snack I like. No biggie I guess. Plus I'm sure I can add it back in later anyway. Thanks for your help.
