Condiment question
I was looking on my "food lists" provided to me by my Weight Control Center and I don't see ketchup listed on there as a do or a don't. Can someone tell me if us RNYers can do ketchup?
Also, I love bbq sauce. I'm nowhere near ready to do bbq, but I was thinking about when I can. I know regular store bought bbq sauce is loaded with sugar. Does anyone have a good recipe? I checked Nik's site, but didn't see anything for bbq.
Thanks!

i'm still new to all of this myself so no authority, but I eat ketchup fairly frequently - I use the Heinz reduced sugar variety, it only has one gram of sugar per serving. Can't help with the bbq sauce, I haven't been willing to go through that many ingredients to make my own. most all of the low carb cookbooks and sites have recipes for bbq sauce though.
This is a great BBQ sauce. http://lowcarbdiets.about.com/od/saucesandmarinades/r/nosuga rbbqsauce.htm
I haven't had a problem with either regular ketchup or regular bbq sauce, but probably because I usually eat it with a protein.
However sadly, Pouchy no longer can handle mustard. I've tried it several times over the past few months and same sad result every time -- pain and nausea. I used to love the stuff :(
