Yes | Price you paid?: $2.69 | Rating: 10    Pros: Everything Cons: more expensive than When I saw the tell tale black box from the end of the aisle I practically ran down to find out if it was the infamous dreamfields. It was! I snatched up a box and immediately went home to try it. At first I was eating it saying to myself, well what's so special about this? Well, WHAT IS SO SPECIAL is that you can't tell the difference! I'm telling you, no one would know if you didn't tell them! So if you have friends/family that are skeptical of LC foods, sneak this in. They'll never know!

Yes | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 10    Pros: Passed the ultimate test -- my kids couldn't tell the difference. Cons: Price Tastes great, but I still don't understand how the came up with the Net Carb Count. lscoop Senior LCF Member Registered: August 2004 Location: CA Posts: 88 Review Date: Wed September 8, 2004 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 8    Pros: As others have said, the price and the taste......but..... Cons: Be careful with it--see below Ok, it gets closer to a 10 on the taste scale relative to other low-carb alternatives, but I do have a small problem with it. I'm on low-carb maintenance and eat 1650 calories/day. EVERY TIME I eat Dreamfields, wonderful as it is, I get the effect that I would get if I were to overload on carbs--a temporary weight gain of about 2 pounds. I say temporary because I'm sure it's just water weight. Carbohydrates in your blood system hold far more water than other cells, so even if these carbs act like fiber for some people, they must still be capable of holding water before passing through the system. Even if this product has a low glycemic index for diabetics, and maybe doesn't even affect some low-carbers, I find that I have to be extra-good for a few days (in terms of carb-counting while still eating at the same caloric level) in order to get rid of that water weight. I'm a person who can eat loads of sugar alcohols and some alcohol with no negative effect to my weight, and yet with Dreamfields I bloat right up--temporarily. Eat with caution, and keep the portions small until you measure your own body's reaction to this product! Cocapelle Senior LCF Member Registered: July 2003 Location: Arizona Posts: 407 Review Date: Wed September 15, 2004 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Price you paid?: $2.50 | Rating: 0    Pros: Tastes like the regular pasta Cons: cost more I couldn't taste any difference, and it didn't stall me. I bought 6 boxes, to begin with, then went back for a basket load full. I couldn't believe it! I hear that they are going to do the same process to rice. Won't that be great! I've made pasta salad, mac and cheese, spaghetti, etc, and it is wonderful. beautiful Senior LCF Member Registered: September 2004 Location: Dallas,TX Posts: 126 Review Date: Tue September 21, 2004 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Price you paid?: $1.92 | Rating: 10    Pros: texture, taste, price Cons: What a find! Walmart is carrying this pasta, my family cannot discern any difference from high-carb pasta, and what a lifesaver for weak moments. Did not seem to affect my ketosis at all! nawthwoodshuntress Senior LCF Member Registered: July 2004 Location: nawthin Maine USA Posts: 139 Review Date: Fri September 24, 2004 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Price you paid?: $2.00 | Rating: 10    Pros: tastes better than regular pasta Cons: not a thing except it may be too good to be true I still have my doubts as to the carb counts the manufacturer claims, but if it's true, it's a revolutionary item in the low carb world. I've used the elbows to make mac & cheese so far (the one item I miss with a passion from my pre-low carb days). I actually liked it better than when I used to use regular pasta. I noticed it didn't have that starchy, slimy pasta residue that regular pasta has. I will only be using this once in a blue moon, though, as I am afraid it will impede my weightloss efforts. When I hit maintenance, though, I plan on having this pasta once a week. tinge_of_crimson Senior LCF Member Registered: July 2004 Location: Los Angeles Posts: 120 Review Date: Wed September 29, 2004 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 10    Pros: soooo good Cons: portion control Taste just like regular pasta. It is really hard to stop at one serving. Chameleon Junior LCF Member Registered: August 2004 Location: Toronto, ON - Canada Posts: 7 Review Date: Thu September 30, 2004 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Price you paid?: $3.99 | Rating: 9    Pros: Great texture, not as pricey as other LC "pastas" Cons: Too good, danger of overindulging Tried this tonight and I was VERY pleased. Great texture, cooked up just like the "real" thing and no funky smells or aftertastes. Even my boyfriend was impressed. Although I found it a bit pricier than regular pasta, it's well worth it in my opinion. Was a bit hesitant to try this product after trying the CarbOptions pasta sidedish (BLECH... ICK, ICK, ICK!!!) but now I'm glad I did. peeweegrl Senior LCF Member Registered: March 2004 Location: Los Angeles Posts: 92 Review Date: Sat October 2, 2004 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Price you paid?: $3.25 | Rating: 10    Pros: Everything! Cons: Are you kidding? I too, had to be convinced about the "digestible carb" thing, but I feel ok about it now. Tastes just like "regular" pasta to everyone I've served it to. The only problem for me is keeping the serving size reasonable. cheri Administrator Registered: September 2000 Location: Illinois Posts: 15157 Review Date: Sun October 10, 2004 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Price you paid?: $1.99 | Rating: 10    Pros: Truely doesn't affect ketosis Cons: Nothing negative about it! I tested for ketosis before trying this product... then ate it... tested an hour later.. still in ketosis... tested 4 hours later... still in ketosis... tested the next morning... STILL in ketosis. Also a few people used their glucose meters when using this product and was very please to see little change when eating this. To me... this is one of those miracle products out there and with dreamsfields you can make this diet much more liveable! KellyJef Senior LCF Member Registered: November 2002 Posts: 444 Review Date: Sun November 7, 2004 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 10    Pros: delicious taste Cons: price This stuff is delicious. It was more expensive than regular pasta, but I had $.75 coupons that I doubled so it was well worth the expense. I love the elbow macaroni with mayo and lots of tuna And I thought the portion size was actually pretty generous. taildragger Junior LCF Member Registered: November 2004 Posts: 5 Review Date: Thu November 11, 2004 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 10    Pros: everything Cons: nothing WOW!!! I missed pasta, but now I don't have to. Pasta salad, mac and cheese, speghetti. WOW!! This is great stuff!!! Ceze Senior LCF Member Registered: December 2002 Location: Wisconsin Posts: 553 Review Date: Sat November 13, 2004 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Price you paid?: $2.00 | Rating: 10    Pros: Great taste!!! I can serve this to anyone and they can't tell the difference. Cons: It is more expensive than regular pasta. This is a great product. I like to use it in soups. I just wish they made lasagna noodles. cema18@ Junior LCF Member Registered: June 2004 Posts: 1 Review Date: Wed November 17, 2004 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Price you paid?: $2.49 | Rating: 10    Pros: TASTES JUST LIKE PASTA Cons: NONE I didn't try it for a long time because I had tried the other LC pastas and would rather give up pasta than eat them. I finally got tempted and couldn't believe how good it is! I do bloat a little after eating it but haven't had any permanent weight gain. It's wonderful to be able to make pasta dishes again!
