Well I decided to have a little treat before finals today so I ordered one of the new low carb pizzas from Panago.
I checked the website and found that the best looking lowest carb option was the Steak Mushroom Melt...3.5 net carbs per slice.
For about $17 i got a nice medium pizza with lots of toppings, and a wafer thin crust...seemed like a lot of money, but what the ****, why not support low-carb foods in restaurants.
The verdict: Very tasty! I was expecting a cardboardy crust but it was not the case...they obviously have been using wheat protein in there, because it was a good crust by any measure. I ate the whole pizza (which I was fully prepared to do for 28 total carbs). One word of advice...this might not be a great choice for induction/OWL since one or two pieces simply wont fill you up. For guys like me, you'll eat the whole thing without blinking an eye.
All in all, not very filling, but it definitely satisfies a mad pizza craving. I would suggest dipping in some no-sugar ranch dressing to add a little more fat to slow the absorption of the carbs coming in.
:ThumbsUp from me though!

If anyone digs up ingredients for the crust let me know!
