Has anyone else tried the new Hood Carb Countdown juice beverages? They
contain between 2 and 4 grams of net carbs per 8 ounce serving and are
sweetened with Splenda. They are found in the refrigerated juice section.
I tried and liked both the orange and the lemonade. Other flavors include
Ruby Red, Orange-Pineapple and Pineapple-Orange-Banana. The price has
ranged from 99 cents to $2.69 per half gallon. I found them here in
Massachusetts at Demoulas, Price Chopper and Stop & Shop. As when they
introduced the Carb Countdown milk, they do seem to be having distribution
problems. You can find more info at www.hphood.com.

Haven't seen these in my neck of the woods but recently found Hood's
yogurt smoothies...at approx. $2.50 for a 10 oz. bottle...on sale!!!
Dang...they're good, too! I was afraid of that! I'll have to start
making my own.

I've just tried the orange, and I love it. It's nice to have a little
glass of orange juice with breakfast.

where ... what is in this stuff?

Not much juice. Some oil. Lot's of other [censored],
such as several vegetable gums to thicken it.

I like the stuff, however, so I'm drinking a little
of it. So far I like the orange best.

I tried the grapefruit. The flavor was okay, but it had an
off-putting thick texture. I needed space in the fridge, and
threw the rest out.
