How do marinades weigh in regards to eating sugar? ie: a marinade for meat that uses Dijon mustard before cooking.
-
DietID_TeamDietitians So there are marinades that have added sugar and those that don’t. Dijon mustard is oftentimes made with honey (which is added sugar) so you can try the same recipe with ground mustard instead. You...

ingalls Thanks! Part of the question stemmed from picking up pre-made stuff. I noticed some things are awesome - like salad dressing listed ingredients. But marinades might just say “Dijon mustard” with no...

DietID_TeamDietitians Yes!! this is a hard one. Once the new nutrition labels hit the market, they will list out the actual grams of added sugar vs naturally occuring sugar. That should make all the difference. Great...

Having a tough time this weekend. I used two passes. 😬

cgsegelette Maybe make yourself an acceptable treat, that tastes great! Fruit smoothie .. pb on frozen banana... good luck 👍 you’ve been doing great
-
annefood I did that last weekend too- ice cream. But I got back on track. Dried fruit was helpful. You can too! Great advice @cgsegelette. You’ve got this @shmoozii !
-
ingalls I have to admit, I’ll most likely use up my passes, too, so have been anticipating which will be my weak days in advance. Like tomorrow... we’re making a fancy dinner for my mother-in-law’s 70th...

Starbucks?
Can I use whole milk and espresso without sweetener? Definitely better flavor but doesn’t the whole milk replace sugar w other calories??
“Lactic acid” vs “Lactose” on the list of 56 sugar names - also something to avoid?
-
annefood No, you don’t need to avoid lactic acid in the Avoid Added Sugar Challenge. It’s used in fermentation (yogurt, pickled veggies, sourdough...) and as a preservative or flavoring agent.
-
annefood And lactose is an intrinsic sugar (not an added sugar) that is naturally occurring in dairy. So no need to worry about that either.

ingalls Thanks! I kept looking it up. ;-)
