Comments please on whether this is a good idea

I am making jelly. Here’s the pack. Australian icon brand. Any opinions of good or bad for keto? I reckon I might make this my go to dessert. With lots of cream of course.

Thoughts?

Looks like sugar free jello to me. I find it weird it just says sweeteners. Like what kind?
I’d try it, with whipped cream. Yummy.
If you are sensitive to sweeteners maybe not a good idea.
Do a blood glucose test for us :wink:

I will. It’s on the list.

And talking of BG tests, switch to the other channel right now… :joy::crazy_face:

The results:

sucralose [955] (Splenda®),
cyclamate [952] and
acesulphame potassium [950] (Ace K, Twinsweet™)

That’s how they suck you in. Entice you with pretty puctures on the front and all those zero’s, then just plop in that little innocent-sounding word: sweetener. Lol! Kills me every time!

I’ve never heard of cyclamate. I’m sure you know more about ace k than I do (which is exactly whatever I’ve read on this forum).

My only thought is that with 3 different sweeteners I’m sure there is only a little of each one? Though with the other test you did with sweetener I wonder if amount isn’t as relevant as I thought it would be.

Yeah one. Don’t. :wink:


(Alec) #9

Really? Why? The sweeteners? :sob::sob:

Can’t be any worse than fruit.


(Alec) #11

??? No fruit on the ingredients list?

Just the raspberry in the front.
