  • I hate Pizza HUT!

    I ordered pizza for my family last night and some wings for myself thinking they'd be a safe bet. When I got to work this morning I looked up the nutrition information on the WingStreet Traditional (non-breaded) Medium Wings that I had last night...OMG!!! 7 Carbs for two WINGS...WTH! Why do they have to screw up something like that?

    I BAN PIZZA HUT FROM MY HOUSE FOREVER!!!!!!!!!

    I am going to start taking more time to look up the nutrition info BEFORE I eat somewhere. I just emailed Texas Roadhouse about their steaks this morning...hubby and I are going out this weekend and I want to know that there is nothing hidden in my meat.

    UGH! UGH! UGH!...so after eating 10 wings and 35 carbs, my cheat free streak is over...I will not let stupid PIZZA HUT derail me! Today I am on plan and vow to be more careful with restraunts.

    Huh. I eat there occassionally because I had heard that they don't use sugar in their wings. I went to their website and the hot wings I get are stated as 1 carb for 2 wings.

      yeah...pizza hut recently changed their wings to WingStreet Wings...which apparently are LOADED with junk. I used to get their wings before the change and they are the ones that have 1 carb for 2 wings. They don't even have the WingStreet nutrition info on the pizza hut site...I had to google it.

      So frustrating when they take a good thing and screw with it!

        I dnt eat there anymore for the same reason! Not only are the new wings smaller & less tatsy, they have way too many carbs! I was sooo disappointed when I ordered wings & picked up...JUNK! I should send them an e-mail saying "Pizza Hut, WTF is wrong with you!?! If it aint broke, don't fix it!!!" Smh

          Everytime I think I've found a good restaurant option it turns out there is hidden junk there. I've pretty much given up on eating anything from restaurants except salads (with bleu cheese dressing, or no dressing). It's frustrating when stuff from restaurants SEEM like it would be OK, until you realize all the crap they've added to perfectly good food.

            Yeah, its hard to find a safe hotwing anymore. I got got at a local place, ended up with breaded wings. And forget anything in the Walmart deli. Imitation crab meat was the last offensive food I bought there. Its not like we wouldn't love to be able to buy fast foods. But everything is about sticking some high fructose corn syrup in it! If they could inject the lettuce they would, I swear! And nobody and I mean nobody is pushing white sugar and white flour as being good for anybody. So why does meat need wheat or sugar water shot into it? Why can't you get a canned veggie without sugar added? Even people not a diet should care about what they eat too. I am casting my vote when I don't buy it. Its just sad that if you can't eat wheat or corn what's left on the store shelves for you. Its not just people who are low carbing, a lot of people have gotten allergic to the crap they are sticking in everything all the time. And still they think the public won't eat real food and they proceed to process it into junk.



            My starting weight was 235 lbs and I'm trying to get to 130 lbs.

            I drink coffee. I drink when I am thirsty. I am just a low carber. Not on Atkins at all!!! He has everything to do with my weightloss and nothing to do with it, depending on who you ask.

                Gosh, I didn't realize they changed the recipe. Guess I won't be eating there anymore either.

                  I've heard that Subway soaks their lettuce/veggies in a sugar solution to keep them tasting fresh.

                    I just knew not even the lettuce was gonna be safe! I have just got to wonder what is wrong with people? Why do they eat it? They don't know they are eating it. They see the pictures of someone loosing weight and think Subway is healthy. Never mind how far he walked before he ate there. Never mind they aren't even ordering the same thing. It is frustrating to try and find anything fit to eat. But please, these places are still in business because people keep going back for more. I am surrounded by people who go and buy subs and burgers. Its not like they are skinny either so it ain't agreeing with them. But after having had to loose all this weight, I feel like a victim of the food industry. Eat rice cakes, fat is evil, pasta is good for you. Its sugar free, its fat-free, etc. I was trying to do the right thing when I was overweight. I'd lay a big % of my weight on the extra bowl of shredded mini wheats. I'm not a fancy cook. I don't try to make one food be another food. I find I don't get tired of eating real food as it is. Cooking has freed me.

                      In my humble opinion, you didn't "cheat". You ate something you weren't expecting ... by accident. Hardly a deliberate cheat.

                        You can!

                        Make sure you're reading the list of ingredients ... don't confuse "sugar" on the nutritional label with added sugar ... it's most likely the naturally occurring carbohydrate (sugar) in the vegetable.

                          Besides HFCS in so many things, my big complaint is soy in everything. For a real sobering look at our food supply, watch Food, Inc. and read the book. There is some backlash to our food supply with people buying local, growing veggies, joining CSAs, preparing home cooked meals but not enough to put even a dent in the profits of the big companies so they will continue on.

                          I saw a commercial for those new Pizza Hut wings tonight and they are so very proud of them. My thinking is that they must be cheaper to make (i.e., cheaper ingredients and more fillers). Too bad they opted for them but unless sales go way down on the new wings, they will continue to carry them. Sad.

                            Remember the focus of Atkins is "whole, unprocessed" foods.

                              You should keep a box of wings in your freezer for when the family orders pizza. I just had the TGIF buffalo flavor wings last night. I believe you could eat 4 for only 2 carbs. They were YUMMY
