So easy to make, just add water, oil and eggs. Author Assbegone! Senior LCF Member Registered: August 2002 Location: Upstate NY Posts: 862 Review Date: Mon December 1, 2003 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Price you paid?: $6.99 | Rating: 7    Pros: Nice change from eggs! Cons: Price I made waffles,according to the package directions they tasted too "eggy" for us. So, I watered down the batter and got great results, a nice light, crispy waffle with a good flavor. I used melted butter instead of oil and some vanilla in a later batch and they were even better. You can also use the thinned batter for pizzelles.

Yes | Price you paid?: $6.99 | Rating: 3    Pros: Cons: taste It was a nice change from eggs, until I tasted it - very spongy, tasted like cardboard! Next time I will try buttermilk and the melted butter per the other suggestion. I will also try to thin down the batter and make the waffles. Review Date: Fri December 5, 2003 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 3    Pros: Idea is attractive Cons: Present recipe is yucky It tastes like eggs. I ate one bite and threw the rest away. If the egg-y tastes wasn't there then maybe. I even substituted some of the water for heavy cream and used some cinnamon. Maybe next time vanilla extract. Atkins baking products need MAJOR improvement. SouthernLady1 MAJOR LCF POSTER! Registered: September 2003 Posts: 1886 Review Date: Sat December 6, 2003 Would you recommend the product? No | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 1    Pros: Cons: All I can say is BLECH! It's better to just make pancakes or waffles using the Atkins Baking Mix. cillygirl Junior LCF Member Registered: August 2003 Location: missouri Posts: 39 Review Date: Sun December 7, 2003 Would you recommend the product?

No | Price you paid?: $4.50 | Rating: 1    Pros: none Cons: price Pancakes tasted like egg flavored sponge. I couldn't get past the third bite. I will try again but I will add some vanilla extract. LCinOH Junior LCF Member Registered: January 2004 Location: OH Posts: 7 Review Date: Fri January 16, 2004 Would you recommend the product? No | Price you paid?: $5.99 | Rating: 1    Pros: None Cons: taste and texture This was the most disgusting pancake mix I've ever tried. Horrible eggy, chemical taste and spongy texture. Save your $ and try something else! glittrkitty Junior LCF Member Registered: January 2004 Location: Olympia, WA Posts: 4 Review Date: Sun January 25, 2004 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Price you paid?: $3.99 | Rating: 4    Pros: Nice change of pace from eggs and meat! Cons: Spongy texture, very egg-y I have to say I was dissapointed with this product. A coworker who is also doing Atkins recommended it, saying it was pretty good, except the syrup was "as thin as water". The first time I had them, I didn't think I'd be able to finish them, I was so let down. They tasted like egg-cakes with runny maple water. But I thinned down the recipe with some cream and added a little bit of Splenda (sweetener) , and it was better. Not great, but better. The best thing about them is that they are not an omelette or a strip of meat (being on Induction, I am so sick of the breakfast choices!!) Also, it is only 3 grams of carbs for 4 pancakes, so it is a very filling meal that won't use up all your carbs. The syrup really does a have a good flavor once you get past the texture. And, compared to the other Atkins products, it's not too expensive, seeing as you get 10 servings per bag (40 pancakes!) Overall, even though I would never choose to eat them if I wasn't on this diet, I do recommend them for an occasional change of pace for morning meals. fitsnips Junior LCF Member Registered: January 2004 Posts: 2 Review Date: Thu January 29, 2004 Would you recommend the product? No | Price you paid?: $5.00 | Rating: 1    Pros: None Cons: Bake mix is better I have had dirt that had a better texture! jdumoit Junior LCF Member Registered: February 2004 Location: Texas Posts: 1 Review Date: Fri February 6, 2004 Would you recommend the product? No | Price you paid?: $5.49 | Rating: 1    Pros: The concept Cons: Tastes terrible The mix tastes incredibly bad! Although the idea of having pancakes on the Atkins diet sounds great, these are not pancakes - the are fodder. dvmgator Senior LCF Member Registered: January 2004 Location: hurricane central Posts: 135 Review Date: Sun February 15, 2004 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Price you paid?: $6.99 | Rating: 7    Pros: good substitute, crepe-like pancakes can be made Cons: a little eggy, a little dry Although I know a lot of people that do not like this product, I really think it is an OK alternative to carb-laden pancake mix. The pancakes come out LOOKING like real pancakes, and taste similar. The texture is fluffy, the taste on the eggy/dry side, but hey, I think they are pretty good. I usually add a packet of splenda and some vanilla which perks up the flavor a bit. I also use a little more water to make a thinner batter. Overall, a good product, in my opinion. decodiva27 Senior LCF Member Registered: February 2004 Location: Scranton, PA Posts: 741 Review Date: Mon February 16, 2004 Would you recommend the product? No | Price you paid?: $4.99 | Rating: 1    Pros: At least they look kinda-like pancakes Cons: worst low carb item I have ever tried This is the most vile sustance known to man. They looked so goood, I couldn't wait to taste them. I think I was able to swallow one bite.

Yes | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 6    Pros: makes saturday breakfast different Cons: While it is not even close to the pancakes that I used to eat before low carbing, it is nice to have them every once in a while. I am actually glad that they aren't too good, because I can satisfy my pancake craving without a full blown cheat.

Yes | Price you paid?: $1.49 | Rating: 9    Pros: Yummy Cons: nobody else likes them... Maybe I am just starved for pancakes but I actually like these... I follow the recipe on the back EXACTLY (lest they don't turn out right) and add 1 tbs vanilla syrup (da vinci's) -- I could eat them every morning. seashell Junior LCF Member Registered: January 2005 Posts: 55 Review Date: Thu March 31, 2005 Would you recommend the product?
