So I told my pharmacist I was a veggie and she said the for refeeding I could have tofu but not quorn because it's too high in carbs.
Everything else I've read about LT is that quorn is ok. Maybe she meant some of the less plain quorn products with bread crumbs covering it and such? The basic plain quorn fillet is extremely similar to an equal weight of tofu in terms of carbs and protein. There's only a few grams in the diference.
So what's the real deal. I will also point out that I asked what I could and couldn't have as a veggie before starting LT and she said no to the chicken soup. Yet on the back of the LT bag it says they are all veggie including the chicken soup. So maybe she doesn't know her facts well?
