The Low Carb Grocery

Over four years ago, I decided to take a free course at Markham-​Stouffville Hospital about Diabetes and nutrition. I am at a higher risk of developing type 2 Diabetes, as my mom has it and my grandmother on my mom’s side of the family also had it.
The course was broken down into two parts. There was a private weigh-​in both times. I was shocked that I had ballooned so much over the years at my first weigh-​in. I then went on a cruise the following week and decided on my vacation that I was going to change the way that I ate (yes, you read it correctly — eating healthy on my vacation). I took what I had learned from the course and changed my eating habits.
A month later, I went for the second part of the course. I had lost ten pounds. To make a long story short, I lost sixty pounds over several months and have kept them off ever since.
My diet tends to be low-​carb, but it isn’t as strict now as it was then. Shopping at the Low Carb Grocery helped me lose weight and continues to help me maintain my weight. I was surprised that this store is a five-​minute drive from where I live when I first was introduced to it!
I am a regular customer there. Most of the staff members pull up my name in the system to credit my purchases towards future discounts with the store’s point system.
I tend to shop on the weekend where there are specials and samples. Last weekend, I sampled carrot chips and bought the beet ones. I don’t need to taste the latter. I like beets.
I have so many products that I love that help me maintain my weight, such was protein powders, miso soup, PB2 powdered peanut butter, lemonade, and so much more.
This store constantly introduces new products. I also like the size of this store. It’s not massive, so you can find everything that you need. If you have any questions, the friendly staff there never hesitate to help you out.

Tread carefully here as not all are actual low carb. Low carb Products they carry i felt are deceiving when u take serving size net carb ratios into consideration
I spend most time reading the fine print labels
So not many products i can utilize when on my cutting diet, but seems to be a safe haven for diabetics.
Pros: tons of varieties my personal favourites green valley, guys garlic bbq and quest protein chips
Cons: bloddy expensive i mean the same yam noodles can be found in walmart for much less

Best store ever, especially if you are diabetic! They also have every type of bar you could possibly want. Love the protopasta, havent ever seen anything like this before.

Decided to cut down as much as possible on grains and sugar. This is based on family members getting Diabetes and doing reading on the latest science along with a few books like Go Wild by John Ratey, Brain Maker by David Perlmutter and Wheat Belly by William Davis. Still going to have burgers and fries or the occasional donut, I am not fanatical about it. Just think it’s worth trying out to see what happens.
This place will be a large help with that.
Cheesecake? alternatives to grain pasta and bread? sugar free condiments? it’s a small place but they have so much that I hadn’t even known existed before.

I Love this place. They deserve a million stars. Beyond awesomeness! This is my favorite low carb market on earth.
I dont know what they put in their low carb bread, but its officially low carb and tastes better than «regular» bread. Their prices are beyond phenomenal and their staff always go out of their way to help.
Even though I had to travel to Milton from DT Toronto to shop, it was worth the trip each and every time.

I am very happy with this business. I placed an order on the weekend and I received it by Tuesday. Everything was fresh and well packed. The shipping was pretty cheap for fast delivery, too, like $ 7.99, saving me the hassle of TTCing it to one of the few low carb stores in Toronto and carrying it all home. They enrolled me automatically in their rewards program which was an unexpected bonus. I’ve been eating really low carb for about 8 months and lost a huge amount of weight but try to stick to whole foods. Sometimes you just really need a slice of bread or something pasta-​like, though and this place easily fills the void. I bought some bread which was fresher than any supermarket bread I’ve ever purchased and make a killer grilled cheese and then a ham and cheese the next day. The bread was slightly pricey and sadly contains gluten but it definitely killed my bread cravings for a while. I also got some tortillas, hazelnut flavour drops for my coffee, sugar free pineapple syrup to fake some pina coladas with nice rum I just brought back from Cuba (the syrup was $ 3 cheaper than the competitor I’ve been buying it from btw), and some low carb/​high protein pasta in case that craving hits one day. All of the products I’ve sampled so far have been 100% excellent. I’m already plotting my next order.

Great selection of low carb food. I was so happy when I found that place because I discovered I could eat bread again. I also eat cream cheese cake or ice cream on a daily basis. Who says you can’t eat great tasting food when you are on a low carb diet?

Submitted my first order online last week. Had a few questions and the staff reorder within a hour (on the weekend). Parcel delivered within one business day and with no issues. Will definitely be ordering again.

This is a great store. I shop there in person; have never tried the online service. The people there are very nice and pretty knowledgeable. You can buy a lot of hard to find items here. Some are for «hard-​core» low carb diets only. But if you’re like me and just want a few simple ways to reduce carbs from your diet, there are some really decent things you can get that don’t taste gross. My faves include: Dreamfield’s pasta, large selection of power bars and a low carb sweet-​tasting loaf of bread that is great with PB&J.

These guys offer the best service. Great selection and friendly staff. I live in Northern Canada, and I always get shipments in a very reasonable amount of time. I don’t shop elsewhere anymore

I shop here in person once in a while but normally I place orders online. Although the prices can be high for specialty products, you won’t find many of these in other stores, so in some cases it’s worth the extra cost. Customer service is excellent and shipping is very fast too.
They have a huge selection of protein bars and low-​carb products of every type you can imagine, and then some.

I’m really glad we found this place. They have a great selection of food and cooking ingredients, and even have a loyalty program that I was happy to sign up for. Pleasant and knowledgable staff as well’

Thank You Low Carb Grocery! Combining this place with the Dr. Poon diet has resulted in me losing over 45 pounds! I feel fantastic, and would not have been able to stick to the diet if not for many of the low carb treats found here.
Carol’s Cheesecakes are to die for, the baking mixes taste amazing, and pancakes! Who would believe I could eat low carb, or even no carb pancakes with syrup?
I just wish I was close so I could visit more often. That just means I need to write a shopping list and stock up! You can find some of the specialty items in other stores, sometimes for better prices, but this is a one stop shop.

Came by this place to check out their selection and my options for doing a low carb diet. Afterall, isn’t weight loss on everyone’s checklist for next years goals? Even though I live in the states, I think I will continue to use this company’s website to help me with menu planning and groceries. It doesn’t make any sense to order from Canada when I can get most of the same things in the states… but came here to try stuff out anyway!
This place has an AMAZING selection of low carb groceries! If you’re looking for a place to buy low carb or diebetic items, I recommend this place. The store is neatly organized, colorful and packed full of goodies to eat.
I tried the low carb bagels — they are much like full sized bagels — low carb and delicious!!! Also purchased their frozen cheesecakes — WOW yummy! The shiritaki noodles are excellent — it’s one of the best selling items according to the staff. I feel like I’m eating a giant bowl of noodles without any carbs! The website has recipes and meal plans that seem pretty easy to stick to.
I was pleased to find that parking was easy and convenient. A huge improvement to the store when I first saw it in North York near Yonge and Lawrence.
