Balsamic Vinegar!!! How much is allowed??
I've always loved balsamic vinegar.. but seem to enjoy it even more now. I have added a drop (promise my food isn't swimming in it) or two to my meals whether breakfast or dinner. In the recipe book, I realised there is balsamic vinegar - but it never says (allowance) nor is there a reference as to how much we should have etc. (or i simply haven't seen it) Any ideas about balsamic vinegar you could share with me. Good, bad, only a once a day thing?? Much appreciated!

Hi Angie, my consultant told me balsamic vinegar was unlimited. I guess provided it is not an unreasonable amount you should be fine.

I actually had it 2 meals a day during the entire diet. I cooked with it (50:50 with water) instead of using EVOO. I only used spray EVOO for my Omelet in the morning. I used it in all my salads as well. I actually like the taste of the stuff!.

Never though of it as syrupy. But if the Good Doctor says it okay, who am I to argue with what is probably the biggest & best "new" taste that I acquired while on the program.

Re: Balsamic Vinegar!!! How much is allowed??
I've been having it too, but interesting to note that different types (particularly aged) can have much higher carb/sugar content.
Any recommendations for balsamic available in Australia? Ta, M

Re: Balsamic Vinegar!!! How much is allowed??
I know this thread is a bit old, but my list says 2 tablespoons per meal, so I guess there IS a limit on it...

I've hopped on the apple cider vinegar train. Generally I use a splash which isn't really scientific measure but I'm guessing about 1 Tspn

Re: Balsamic Vinegar!!! How much is allowed??
I definitely use less than 2 tablespoons!
I am a splasher too, Marmie.

Re: Balsamic Vinegar!!! How much is allowed??
I'm also a splasher, I only ever use it on feta and salad and don't like too much so I'm not hung up on the idea of overdoing it. Unless you're swigging, I think you're fine
