Subway Atkin's Wraps
| Wed, 01-14-2004 - 6:11pm |
Does anyone know much about the new subway Atkins's wraps? I have been told they taste great, but I was wondering about some of the ingredients if OK for the Beach. Here is the text from Subway's site:
On December 29, Subway® Restaurants will offer two Atkins® Nutritionals, Inc.- endorsed wraps for people on carb-controlled diets: the Turkey and Bacon Melt Wrap, with Monterey cheddar cheese, and the Chicken Bacon Ranch Wrap, with Swiss cheese. Both Atkins® -Friendly Wraps, available in the U.S. and Canada, have 11 grams Net Carbs* or less, and the wrap itself, which is made with wheat gluten, cornstarch, oat, sesame flour and soy protein, has only 5 grams Net Carbs*.
Is the wheat gluten OK? I don't want to eat this if it causes a "hunger" reaction later.
Thanks for any info,
Tamera

Atkins doesn't watch the "bad fats" like we do.
All The wraps are between:
420-480 Calories
32-40g protein
19-22g Carbs
2-4g sugar
25-27g total fat
9g Saturated fat
55-90mg cholesterol
1340-1650mg sodium
11-12g fiber
The Turkey Bacon is on the lower end of the spectrum in almost all areas (except sodium).
Thanks for the info,
Tamera
130 cals
2.5 total fat
0 saturated fat
500 mg sodium
16g carb
11g fiber
1g sugar
12g protein
So it looks as if the wrap itself is no problem... just substitute some of the "bad fat" ingredients with good stuff.
With SBD, you should be able to alter almost any item to work.

If I'm not mistaken, I think Subway has low fat cheese that you could substitute, and order either wrap without the bacon, maybe add avocado instead? I read the nutrition facts on the wrap alone...
Good point Jamah!
