has anyone tried this, and is it allowable? says 4g sugars and i know were supposed to only have 3 It would make an awesome oriental salad kinda like Applebees makes.With modifications of coarse.
The honey mustard one is awesome too but i dont use it because it says 5 on it. How about if we watered them down or something or used less?

Wow, Deb...

I've wanted to, but never did buy it cus everytime I reread the ingredients, it sounds high in sugars. The ingredients list sugar, soy sauce, cane sugar, & pineapple concentrate. I think pineapple is a high-glycemic fruit.

I don't like to play around with the "hard stuff". Afraid it'll release the "carb-craving monster".

As you know, it would be much safer to make your own.

Im sure your right:hide: Sounds good tho dont it? hee hee

Question back at ya!

It sure does sound good. That's why periodically I reread the ingredients when I see it in the store. Wishful thinking that maybe it sounds OK now or maybe they've changed the ingredients! hee hee

Maybe we should call them & suggest it. Post it if you come up with a good recipe, OK?

OK, Deb, another salad dressing question for you...

I know you loved that Carb-Well Creamy French by Kraft, like I do. Have you found anything even similar??
