| A low carb muffin? Isn't that the same as a "petite sumo-wrestler"? I didn't think it was physically possible...and it turns out that it isn't, really. The low carb here refers to the 6 grams of "net carbs", not actual carbs. Net carbs are the carbs that impact your blood glucose level, so what Vitalicious has done is taken the 23 actual carbs and subtracted the 6 grams of fiber and 11 grams of sugar alcohols (since those do not have as much of an impact on blood sugar levels) to arrive at the 6 grams of net carbs. The problem with this is that some other muffins have fiber and sugar alcohols too, so when comparing muffin to muffin it's best to just say the actual carbs that everyone else lists. Phew, all that being said, I LOVE these all natural muffins! They are richly banana flavored with a lot of nuts, not to mention that they come LOADED with nutrients (fiber, protein, potassium, calcium, Vitamins A,C,D and iron)! Oh yeah, and very low in calories with the same muffa-licious taste of a regular muffin. |

| It feels redundant to keep going on about how fantastic Vitatops are, but hey, there are a lot of flavors so I'll just have to suffer through and try them all. This one is a bran muffin, so obviously it is heartier than the regular Vitatops, which I really liked because it is more filling. The muffin is sweet and soft, versus some bran items that are too dry or bitter. My only complaint is that I would want more blueberries in it, as they seemed a bit too sparse. As with all Vitatops, this muffin is all natural, has virtually no fat, is high in vitamins, minerals, fiber and is a good source of whole grains...all for 100 little calories. |
