4. I wonder if it will be any good

I became very ill while vegetarian and then vegan and would never do vegan again. It is not for everyone. I have tried plant based meats, the various ingredients made me ill and spiked blood sugar. A lot of foods do not have accurate carb counts either. I am quite limited in what I can eat now with multiple chronic conditions. I hope they don’t add grains and other unnecessary carbs into this.
