No, this isn't a joke. :-) Pre-LC, I ate plain or multigrain rice cakes under tuna or egg salad instead of using bread. I enjoyed the crunchy texture. And they're not really too bad at around 11g net carb/rice cake if you're at a level that can tolerate that much. I just figured I could wait a few more weeks. Then I was shopping at my local whole foods grocery and found Corn Thins in the rice cake/cracker aisle. Two of them are about the same thickness as a single rice cake but they're more densely packed. And only 9g net carbs in 2 cakes.

corn and rice are both highly glycemic and probably not what any dieter should eat. you'd be better off eating bread.
