I just went back and re-read the comments after seeing the linkback here…b/c I wanna love carob. Mine has always been raw. So I have like 75 bucks worth of various brands of raw carob. Thinking it would be so good. But like the other girl said, it’s nasty. Ok, now I am thinking I need non-raw. Ah-hah!

Thx for clarifying

I always pack my own stevia packets but at Starbucks, you can ask for their protein/fiber powder to be added to any drink. It is whey protein but each serving has 30 calories and 6 grams of protein. Every little bit helps!

I always pack my NuNaturals stevia packets and True Lemon packets in my purse. Once brought my own low carb R.W. Garcia Flax & Soy chips to a Mexican restaurant to the embarrassment/laughing delight of my dining companions! Rock on!

I LOVE that you BYOP! I have definitely done that but never, like, with a tortilla…sooooooo genius!
When we go out for Mexican or Indian food I always bring a gang of veggie sticks so I can eat the salsa/eggplant/whatever sin chips/naan!

I am soooooo psyched for fall produce – it doesn’t get much better than pumpkin oatmeal, pumpkin bread, pumpkin…ANYTHING.

ps- I bring my own stuff all the time. I have several food restrictions due to illness. Who cares if it’s tacky, we need to do what makes us feel best!

I realize you just answered this question in a comment above but could you share the brand of carob powder you have please? I bought some raw carob and it tasted like stinky feet. It was AWFUL! I can’t imagine yours tastes like that and I really want to like like carob! Thanks!

Great post today! When I go out to breakfast I bring packets of sugar in the raw and/or truvia. I also sometimes bring vanilla almond breeze. I put it in an insulated baby bottle I had when my daughter used a bottle. It’s PREFECT! It holds 5 oz. Just the right amount for hubby and I to enjoy our coffee dairy free! Nothing like a great B-fast with GOOD COFFEE!
