    Inquiring mind here. No bread, crackers etc but what are the thoughts on brown rice crackers? I know we can have brown rice. Are these a no-no as well?
    Thanks.

    Hi BecLouLou,
    Welcome to the forums.
    Brown rice crackers are about 75% carbs, which is just over 2g carb for each tiny, thin little cracker. Given that you can easily eat 10 of them as a snack, they aren’t suitable for a low carb diet. The carbs in this form are much more easily digested than in whole brown rice so will affect blood sugars and fat burning.
    Even whole brown rice should be taken in limited quantities, and not often, on the BSD.
    Probably not what you wanted to hear, sorry. Just goes to show we have to be mindful of the so called healthy alternatives too.
