  • Cool Whip??

    Hi all,


    I have a question. For a lot of the recipes I see cool whip or whip cream. But it has 2 grams of carbs and 1 sugar. Is this still ok? I even think in the Shopping Guide it says cool whip is ok. I'm confused. Is it just me?

    A better choice would be to buy heavy cream and whip it up yourself. For an extra bit of sweetness you can add some Splenda in.

          Cool Whip is not okay at all. Even the one that reads SUGAR FREE in big RED letters on the front is made with corn syrup (liquid sugar) and has more carbs than the regular. Land O' Lakes makes Splenda sweetened whipped real cream in a can. It's in the dairy case. But, it's really easy to whip some up yourself.
