Default Re: Cream and Half-n-Half Question

Cream is OK but half'n'half is not for on induction as it contains milk so would be reintroduced in the 2nd level/rung of OWL.

The carb count for cream would vary from brands I expect - the one I use (double cream called heavy cream in USA) has 0.4 carbs per tablespoon.

You will see from the allowed list that the limit for cream is 2-3 tabelspoons a day on a regular basis, with a mention of now and again being able to use more (up to 6 tablespoons) under the special category section if it does not affect your weightloss and you are not eating the other foods mentioned there (it is an 'either/or' situation)
