Carb-counting bagels – I had my lunch today on a “carb-counting” bagel. This is new, or at least new to me, in my brand, in my store. We went shopping last weekend and there they were, next to the “toaster-style” bagels (which I normally eat) and the “New York-style” bagels (which I normally try to avoid, as they are almost twice the calories of the “toaster-style” bagels, and not as good). I make my lunch every weekday, the same sandwich every day, so any small change in my diet could have a large cumulative effect. That’s the theory, anyway. [Dive Into Mark]
It’s a pretty funny review of “Carb-counting bagels” which seem to be almost a contradiction in terms, how do you reduce the carbs in an almost pure carb bagel? My favorite part is his end:
I did some rough “back of the envelope” calculations and determined that if I were to eat my daily sandwich on a “carb-counting” bagel instead of a regular bagel, and otherwise did not change my daily food consumption in any way, after three months I would lose one pound and kill myself.
