Re: Walden Farms products

I have the no carb maple syrup. I've only used it once and thought it wasn't very good. BUT this was right after I started Atkins. I bet if I tried it now it would taste a lot better to me.

Only problem is I didn't really consider the fact that all the things I would normally put maple syrup on are not allowed, hehe.

Re: Walden Farms products

When I began Atkins, Walden Farms came out with their line of no carb salad dressings. Like an idiot, I wasted $3.49 on a bottle. To make a long story short, I ended up dumping the bottle in the garbage can.

Here's my advice about salad dressings that are specifically labeled "low carb"---don't fall for the advertisement. Read the labels of 'regular' salad dressings and you'll find that they fall into the salad dressing rule stated in the Induction Acceptable foods list. Your tastebuds will thank you and your wallet will thank you.

I did this too, I bought the maple syrup right when I started Atkins, tried it and hated it. It's been in the fridge ever since. Then today I made some of Sugar Free Sheila's pancakes and I used the syrup and enjoyed it. Weird. Maybe it's the type of pancake I put it on? Or maybe now I'm just used to the taste of sucralose... or both?

I have bought both the apple butter and the apricot jams, but I wouldn't recommend them as jams, they're way too sweet and an odd texture. They do melt well however, so they are good for recipes. I've made muffins and added the applebutter (melted to liquid) in place of sweetener so they had a mild apple flavour. I'm thinking it would also make a nice glaze for a pork roast or an addition to a home bbq sauce.

Just now seeing this thread but I bought the italian dressing and I put a little on my finger and tasted it and EWWW . I couldn't bare wasting MORE $ on something so I took it back to the store and they gave me my $ back, thankfully.

Re: Walden Farms products

I have tried a few of their products...I am pretty picky...but I DO like the balsamic vinaigrette..I add a little flax oil to it and it is really good ,a little sweet, just right for salad with grilled chicken breast....the sundried tomato dressing is also good...my daughter like that one (and she's thin) .

I like the caramel dip...but it tastes more like butterscotch to me....the chocolate was yucky....I LOOOOVe the apple butter, but it's not like apple butter....it's smooth and it melts....nice with pork chops and it would be could with ice cream if I could have any....

most of the dressings I hated....they taste "fake".

the marshmallow dip is strange...not like marshmallow really...it's creamy sort of...and oddly addictive.

Re: Walden Farms products

I have tried alot of the Waldens Farms products and some are very good others not so much I find that the flavors and textures are off on almost every product but they are zero carb/calorie. The pancake syrup is a staple for me and in my opinion one of the five best low carb products still on the market.

Re: Walden Farms products

I use several of the dressings on a regular basis. I like the bacon ranch & the honey dijon.

Maple Groves makes several excellent low carb dressings. Give them a try!!

Re: Walden Farms products

I've tried the caesar and ranch dressings, and also the mayo.
Yuck to all three. the mayonnaise was like straight vinegar.

Re: Walden Farms products

I have the bar-b-que sauce and it is delicious! I made bar-b-que pork the other night -- regular for the family and Walden Farm version for myself - I was very happy with the taste! I've never tried any of their other products but the bar-b-que sauce is definately a winner!!
