| Great product. I'm on low carb diet and made waffles. So incredibly light. They also can be refrigerated and used next day in toaster and still taste great. It's a nice breakfast treat and also great with low carb ice cream!!! |

| Oh my goodness. This pancake mix is unbelievably delicious. Super easy to make, these pancakes are light and fluffy. They are also super friendly to my blood sugar (I am diabetic). I eat them with sugar free blueberry syrup and it is like eating dessert for dinner. Cannot recommend this product enough and I do not like most low carb products. One tip----I added a little extra water to thin out the batter---first time I made these I followed the instructions exactly and my pancakes were large and thick---and did not cook completely in the middle. I added a little extra water next time which gave me more pancakes and they cooked through perfectly. I am now ordering 4 more packages!! |

| Amazing! Bought this last week and had my first pancakes since starting Atkins in Jan 2012. Added fresh blueberries and 1 tsp of that Maltitol syrup and real butter. Tasted like homemade organic whole wheat pancakes you might get at your local earthy organic cafe. I'm buying MORE! |

| I never write product reviews, but as soon as I ate these pancakes I had to sit down and recommend them to everyone else. These pancakes taste 99% like the real deal - I doubt I could tell the difference if a diner served them as real, high-carb pancakes. I eat them with Maple Grove syrup. Amazing! |

February 04, 2011 Reviewer: Abigail in Massachusetts |
| Best pancake/waffle mix I have found. I haven't made pancakes with it, I make waffles. If I make the whole bag it will make 12 big Belgian waffles. I freeze the extras and then when I want one I just put it in the toaster. These are the best low carb waffles I have found. My five year old loves them and he doesn't put anything on them just eats them plain. I have the worlds pickiest five year old but when it comes to these waffles he loves them!! I order these every time I place a order. It is nice to eat waffles with my family and Big Train products have made it very easy to stick to my low carb lifestyle!! |

August 23, 2010 Reviewer: Alicia in Ohio |
| This stuff is just great! As a recently diagnosed diabetic I cannot tell you how happy I am to have found this product. I just tested my post-breakfast blood sugar and I'm at 121. That sold me on this product. I promptly bought 2 more packages. Thanks so much to the makers of this product. I felt a bit overwhelmed by my diagnosis but with yummy items like this I can eat low carb, not feel deprived and not worry about my blood sugar! |

February 01, 2008 Reviewer: Lynn in Florida |
| Outstanding light, fluffy waffles and pancakes; no low-carb aftertaste that I (or my brunch guests) could detect. Make an extra batch and freeze them. They are just as good from the toaster oven days, weeks, even months later. |

March 31, 2007 Reviewer: Diane in New Hampshire |
| These are the best low carb pancakes out there. I add a little bit of cinnamon to the mix and eat them with sugar free syrup. They taste just like high carb pancakes and the batter cooks up nicely as well...not too thick. I highly recommend this product, personally I can't live without it - it's my weekend treat from cereal. |

| I just made some blueberry pancakes with this mix and it was wonderful. As good as any pancake mix I have ever had. I am usually very wary of any of these low carb mixes as they usually remind me of glue or styrofoam. This mix is great and I am a professional cook. |

| I have attempted to make my own low carb pancakes, Not very successful.. I found & ordered Big train. I am completely impressed and love this mix. Waffles are terrific, same with pancakes. Have just ordered 6 more bags. So happy to have found the Big Train products and your web site. |

| Big Train pancake and waffle mix tastes great! I add a little extra salt though. The pancakes are just like regular pancakes. The waffle mix can be made lighter if you separate the egg whites and whip them separately to form peaks. Then fold the whites into the batter which was prepared with the remaining ingredients. |

| This is by far the best low carb pancake mix on the market. It has the right texture and taste. The batter is really indistinguishable from regular pancake batter and the pancakes and waffles come out perfect. |

August 10, 2012 Reviewer: Barbara in Oklahoma |
| Great waffles! Have added things like the organic pumpkin found here, sugar free versions of choc chips, peanut butter, cherry and apple pie fillings. Haven't had a bad waffle yet. Love this mix! As good as any waffle you would find anywhere. Never tried making pancakes. Just a waffle person at heart. |

April 21, 2012 Reviewer: Alan in Ohio |
| Here's the deal: Does Big Train taste exactly like regular pancakes? No, they don't. But, boy, it's close enough for me, a long-time low carber, to enjoy the heck out of my weekly pancake breakfast. I would recommend Big Train mix to anyone needing an occasional pancake/waffle treat without the guilt. Just ordered more and imagine I will continue ordering more well into the future. |

| I love this product. I substitute the oil for applesauce and the eggs for egg whites, and the recipe is extremely low calorie for pancakes. The texture inside is different than your classic pancake, but tastes incredible. |

March 13, 2012 Reviewer: Yvonne in Minnesota |
| These are absolutely amazing! I have always been a pancake/waffle/french toast lover, and this low-carb lifestyle really curbed my breakfast options. I tried this, with Walden's syrup, and I just about cried with delight. Okay, I'm a little more in control of my emotions than that, but even my husband loved them. We pankcaked the first day (I added an extra egg and one extra egg yolk because I prefer the chewy German-style pfannekuchen), and we waffled it day two (I added a heaping tablespoon of sour cream and vanilla). I'm drooling just thinking about them. When I ran low, I added a little Carbo Quick and decided I'd never do that again. Part of the concoction is stuck to my waffle maker. The part that I ate convinced me I'll never insult Big Train with it again. I buy this stuff in bulk now. (I wouldn't mind if they'd lower the price. OUCH!) |

| We went low carb in June. We have been pretty good (except for Moscato which put 3 pounds of fat on me before I figured it out), but with young children in the house sometimes you just want some pancakes. These were just as delicious as say, Bisquik, but won't do Bisquik damage to my waistline. The only thing to be aware of is the serving size is only three 3" pancakes (9 servings per package), but I was full on that amount and with the addition of sausage, eggs or bacon anyone who needs a lot of food to feel full should be content. I will try Carbquik next to see if pancakes made from that mix are as delicious. |

August 10, 2011 Reviewer: Elizabeth in Georgia |
| Yummm! These are great. I wasn't paying attention and dumped the whole box in the mixing bowl, so I ended up making a full batch (the instructions are for small servings) and froze them. They held up great in the freezer! According to my husband who can eat whatever he likes, they don't taste like his real buttermilk pancakes ( and I have to agree ) but for a low carb substitute this is great! |

| Very, very good, and the recipe is simple. I cut the calories by 20% by substituting 2 egg whites for one egg, and by reducing the oil from 1 tablespoon to 2 teaspoons - with no difference in taste that I can detect. |

June 12, 2011 Reviewer: Barry in New York |
| This mix makes great pancakes. I can not tell the difference between Big Train and a non low carb mix. They are smooth and fluffy, ad quite easy to make. I usually use half the amount of oil that the recipe calls for, and I use Egg Beaters instead of a real egg, and they are still really good, but less fat and cholesterol. |
