Hello fellow mates!
I came to this by jzpowahz's recommendation. I did read the old thread and this one, and gotta say that it completely delivers! Feels good to see that I am not the only one digging and taking a lot of time on IGA, Coles and Woolies reading nutritional labels!

So here my 2 cents:
I came up with this amazing macro friendly lebanese bread. Vitastic Wholemeal Lebanese bread Lite.

Did some kangaroo chili burritos with them, amazing! 1.5kgs of very tasty and cheap food @ 14F 153C 153P // 1307 cals (for the batch in the photo)

Hey everyone,

I'm not sure if it's already been mentioned however spotted in Coles today I saw the Steggles Turkey Shortcuts Mince, 500g for $5.
Macros per 100g - 91cal, 20.1p 1f 1c.

For the thai food fans, we now have a lower calorie curry option.
Found at both Woolworths and Coles are the Five Tastes range. A bottle of their stir-through green curry or red curry mix sits below 275calories for 4 serves. (or if you're like me, it'll be two larger serves.)
Macros and other products of theirs can be seen on their website. I don't think the products are on Woolies or Coles' online shops yet.

Does anyone know of a Wrap/Tortilla with relatively low carbs that can be found at Coles/IGA/Woolworths? Wraps in the normal bread section are all around 50g carbs each and the ones in the health section aren't any better.

Seems an english muffin is a better choice at only 28g carbs.

English Muffins are probably your best bet.
The smaller wraps you can get at ~20c or so from the bread section or the mexican food section, but it would hold just about the same amount of food as the english muffin.
I've recently been on a baked potato kick. Straight out of the oven, stick anything and everything on top haha.

Vitastic Sorj Rye Healthy Soft wraps


About 17g carbs per wrap and they taste REALLY good Softer than mountain bread, not as dry

This is the nutritional info, couldn't find a pic with the new packaging

I couldn't find a nutrition panel pic but my fitnesspal has the following. Which from memory is pretty accurate.

soooooo legit:

Go to the health food aisle at Woolies. Check out Slim Pasta. Like 6 calories or some **** for the entire pack. No carb product. A bit pricey though, but ideal for when you want to hack spaghetti bol once you're carb allowance is gone for the day.

I found these by accident last week, they're so good for a pasta fix

[AlwaysTryin]

soooooo legit:

Ahh so they brought the ice cream out in bars now!

[Chrissief]

Yep - found them in IGA. They're better than Magnums - the caramel has a nice saltiness without being overpowering, the choc coating & macadamias are delicious and the ice cream itself is unreal.

I hope you tried this in the pint form too! Easily my favorite ice cream flavor going round.

Go for shiratake or Konji noodles in your closest asian grocery store. Same thing but way cheaper, 2 for 2 deals and so on.

Also you can find em on the noodles section, for 2.40 instead of almost 4 for the named brand in health.

Cheers,

You can get Toast Ems (like pop tarts) at the Reject Shop.

[Stephendrewz]

Thanks for responses re: wraps. I will keep an eye out.

Are they really similar in taste?

No idea. I don't eat them.

What's everyones views on these? How would you count these in your macros by calories or by P/C/F?

Haven't tried them, however I would be inclined to put the rest under carbs as Maltitol is a sugar alcohol.

[ThatWei]

260 kcal for 100 g is still a lot, honestly I'd just have the real thing.

I see your point however 76 carbs doesn't sound right...

Honestly, Does everything need to be spelt out?

You were entering food competitions, some of these completions offer money as a prize, therefore, did you win any money?
