The following tips can help you stream line the process and en sure that you fill your shop ping cart with all the right foods: Do the majority o f your shopping along the perim eter o f the store - that’s where you' II find the most n u tritio u s, low est carb foods. Be careful when selecting prepared salads from the deli counter - even those you might think are acceptable, such as tuna, egg and cucum ber salads, can contain added sugar. Avoid salads with pasta, potatoes and grains. Milk is high in carbs and is not acceptable during the initial phases o f the Atkins low carb diet. In stead, keep an eye out for a new category o f con- trolled-carb dairy drinks that taste like milk. Low- c a rb y o g u rts and smoothies are also avail able in the dairy section. Be careful with condi ments. Almost all brands o f k e tc h u p , b a rb e c u e sauce, teriyaki sauce, mari nades, and sweet and sour sauce contain added sug ars. Look for low-carb ver sions, or stick with natu rally low-carb items like oils, vinegar and mustard. YVVWV to $ 2 .6 9 o n 2 Mix o r 5 lb.
