So, I'm heading into low carb land and doing some research on just where those pesky carbs are hidden. I found a great site which had an ethnic food category (http://www.lowcarb.ca/low-carb-tools/carb_counter_listing.html). Cool! I need to know this type of stuff. I just won't live on In-n-Out Animal Style.

What I found is this: Alaska is a GREAT place to live if you want to eat low-carb items.

All of these great things have 0.0 grams of carbs. Anyone hungry?

Belive me, NA- a few weeks into the low carb thing, and some of those menu choices start to look pretty tasty.
