Review: Big Train Buttermilk Pancake & Waffle Mix by Amy Dungan

Ride the Big Train and enjoy! Big Train Buttermilk Pancake & Waffle Mix Review

Trying to find a decent low-carb pancake mix is like trying to find a needle in a haystack. It’s a tough search. To be honest, I’ve held out little hope for these mixes. Many of them are loaded with so much soy that I can’t get past the taste. I’ve also noticed they seem to have a rubbery texture. Neither is cause for celebration.

I did celebrate however after cooking up a batch of Big Train Low Carb Buttermilk Pancake & Waffle Mix 9 oz. bag. With only about 2 net carbs per pancake, it’s hard to find something to complain about. These tasty little pancakes have the perfect texture and an amazing flavor. And best of all, no soy. Great taste and a decent carb count that will remind you what it’s like to enjoy pancakes and waffles again, without all the guilt.

This product, while low in carbs, is still probably best used by those in pre-maintenance or maintenance stages due to the ingredients, which contain some corn starch, wheat flour and corn flour. If you are in the weight loss phase of your plan and are just dying for pancakes, this is certainly preferable to eating the the high carb counterpart. Just use your own discretion and enjoy.
