Question 1

How come is shows 2g of net carbs when according to the detailed information it's 14g of net carbs?

Accepted Answer

Both have been inaccurate in my experience as a type 1 diabetic using an insulin pump (which makes precise numbers an absolute requirement). But my diabetes has also taught me that around 50% of Fiber is broken down to Glucose by the human body and used as such From my experiences I recommend only counting 50% of fiber as passing as fiber, the rest as digestible carbs.
What the "...Atkins Net Carbs" means is not defined and without the scientific method can only be assumed to be "decoration" and thereby completely inaccurate and not worthy of consideration. Just my view as a man who has lost brain cells due to low blood sugars caused by believing the numbers presented in the Atkins products. Often 50-80% carbs shown in the nutritional information prevents the low blood sugars. If you burn the number of carbs you consume in a day only, you won't gain weight. Relying on Protein to fulfill the roll is a fools errand as gluconeogenesis caused by insufficient glycogen & glucose will cause you to burn the muscles to produce glucose instead, removing them from the burning of glucose and fat. The loss of muscle weight to lose weight is in absolutely no way a smart decision.

Question 2

Is this the price for 1 box?

Accepted Answer

I normally spend about$6 for a box of five. last time I ordered them they were $5.86 per box. The price showing today must be some kind pf mistake.

Question 3

According to the 1st bullet under "about the product", it states...(five) boxes of atkins endulge chocolate caramel mousse bars. so 5 boxes of 5 bars?

Accepted Answer

Wow, that's really misleading for sure! It would be a box of 5 bars though. At least it was when I bought them.

Question 4

What source of glycerin in this product? Pork?

Accepted Answer

It’s vegetable glycerin. From what I read, there are no  porcine ingredients in this item.
