Veg question...

[Loser85]

Sorry if this is a daft question but its been bugging me!

Have been using the birds eye steam fresh veg bags with my meal pack at tea time and been throwing away the carrots as they're not on the allowed list. Anyone know why? Cant figure that one out

 

[weasey]

Carrots are quite high in carbs - the veggiea on the allowed list tend to be low in carbs.

Thanks for that!

Been wondering for a while, oh well.

I've got those same packs, right pain to pick out the carrots isn't it!

Thats why theyre so sweet and tasty! carbs! the general rule seems to be anything bright and colourful like red or orange is generally quite carby or anything that has a sweeter taste

 

[Caz]

Yup it's true. That's why we can have yucky green peppers but not tasty red, yellow or orange ones lol

glad theres someone else that dislikes green peppers! they are not the same as the other colours at all!
