after my post about my new brekkie shake, my sis in law Lisa pointed out that the yummy soy protein drink is high in sugar and carbs. she was right! i use it only for my shakes and if i need a glass of milk usually just drink a regular vanilla soy milk. anyway, i found a website that i think is awesome for comparing products:
http://www.calorie-count.com/
with information on over 75,000 products, you can type in any food or any brand of food and it will pull up the full nutritional information as well as a letter grade (A, A-, etc). it tells you what the pros and cons are for each food (high in sugar, high in sodium, high in certain vitamins.) It's a great site for someone like me - who though I do love the carbs and sugar!!...can possibly find some other great alternatives.
