Hi all,
I just found a carton of extra firm tofu at the grocers. It says there is 1 carb ( less than 1 net carb ), per serving, which is a 1 ' slice ( portion is 1 ' by 4 ', so a good size ). It seems too good to be true - - the whole package being less than 4 net grams and it tastes delicious. I fried it in olive oil and some bacon and put it with my salad.
curious if any of you use tofu and, if so, what has been your experience with regard to it affecting ketosis / weight loss?
Thanks! [ / icon_cool. gif]

Yes, tofu is ok on Atkins. Just watch the carb count, as you are doing. I don ' t eat it myself because I don ' t like the consistency of it.
