> [@NurseCarmen](#): > > Atkins would be hell if it wasn’t for sugar-free Jello and Reddi Whip. 😛 You know, I don’t care for Jello at all. I know a lot of people doing Atkins said the same thing, but I made it through okay. I had a HUGE sweet tooth, but Jello just doesn’t do it for me. ---

> [@The Big Cheese](#): > > 1 more thing. Someone at work, a great baker, made about 5 cheesecakes for an event we had, in addition she made an Atkins cheesecake for the Atkins people at work. I tried it out of curiosity. It was awful. So you probably made it the way it was supposed to be. :dubious: I agree, the first LC cheesecake I made was awful. As was the second. But then I found Whey Low and my cheese cake once again tasted like cheese cake. I’ve made it with Spenda (bleech) and Nutrasweet (double bleech) and both had that awful artificial sweetner after-taste. Not so Whey Low. You gotta try it if you like sweets. SF Jello is gross IMO because of the aftertaste of the sweetner. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/need-some-low-carb-recipes-ideas/223674.md?page=1)
