I all I'm having lettuce with my chicken tonight, can I have balsamic vinegar (normally id have coleslaw but I'm guessing that's a no-no lol)

Thanks

Hi, I saw someone mention a balsamic spray by (I think) the people who make Frylight - or maybe it was that you can find it near the Frylight in Sainsburys lol. Balsamic alone contains sugar so is a no-no. Shame cos I love it.

There are two spray ones that I think have been officially ok'd- both salad-light, I've only found them in Sainsbury's but they were with the dressings not the oils. There is balsamic and ceasar. Both ok, not the greatest thing ever but do the job! I use a couple of sprays and a sprinkle of dried herbs on my salads.

Thanks guys, what about normal vinegar, would that be ok?

I honestly don't know, I do know people have pickled things like eggs, gerkins, cabbage, and mention has been made of pickled onions/shallots. But I rinse the eggs, I don't know if just regular malt vinegar has sugar in.

In the summer when I was eating salad instead of veg I used to use the lowest calorie / carb dressing I could find, so the Asda Good For You Italian dressing is only 8 calories and 1.2g carbs per serving. I haven't tried the Frylight ones as I haven't seen them anywhere yet.

I put some soy sauce on my veg tonight 11 cals per tablespoon and I used a max of quarter of that. It's about 11% carb do not even going to try and calculate that lol.

I bought the salad light ones in sainsburys although when I got home found out that the caesar one was out of date so it seems like they might not be very popular! I like the balsamic one but haven't tried the caesar one - decided it was going to cost more in petrol to drive back to sainsburys and return it!
