Well im shocked and stunned and not a little amazed...!!! Just checked peanuts... they have the same carbs as a slice of wholemeal bread... ok th3 fat content is not great... but im hapoy tonight.. love my peanuts... didnt think id be able to have th3m... happy Mick.
 
May I just ask what kind of peanuts you eat? KP Salted Peanuts are only are only 5.6g carbs per 100g, Dry Roasted are 7.2g per 100g xx
 
As long as they're not in a bag next to your 5th pint. 🙂
 
Kaylz... they are the tesco ones.. and yes approx 10g per 100g... so not exactly great... but something i can eat in moderation that i didnt think i would be able to..

Brando exactly... small glass of red wine with a meal for me now.... gone are those days...
Mick.
 
Avoid Tesco peanuts. They add sugar & starch to them. I found that out the hard way.😱 I now only have Aldi peanuts. They do a lovely chilli flavour one that is only 1g carb per 25g serving. And don't worry about the fat either. I'm losing weight by not worrying about fat.🙂
 
Thanks Mark will look out for the Aldi ones... and yes im the same with watching the fat... already had to add another hole to my belt in 2 weeks... unbelievable it really is.
Mick.
