Superfood Veggie Cakes
Couldn't find these listed in the products to review so I'm posting their info here.
Picked a package of these up at Costco 2 weeks ago to try. I really like the flavor, reminds me of spring rolls without the wrappers. The texture is soft & easy to portion into the size bite you need to not upset your stomach. Almost better than that is the ease of preparing them -- Thaw one overnight in the fridge then pop it in the microwave for 25 seconds & it's ready to eat.
I'm stocking up on my next trip to Costco because my daughter likes them too. You can also order them direct online if you don't live near a Costco or have a membership.

I saw them..but even now - over 8 years post op when I see food that has sugar added - i avoid it. there si no good reason to add sugar to perfectly good - and most of the mn sweet anyway - vegetables.
I can and make my own - with no added sugar CORN STARCH, MALTODEXTRIN etc. or even rice. rice may not be bad - but ...my body turn starches into sugar very fast-
the 3 gr of sugar does not seams like a lot - but i tsp of sugar has 4 gr of sugar so this has close to 1 tsp of sugar...
and corn...
