| These muffins tasted very good and were easy to make. My daughter and my husband loved them and he's not watching his carbs. I bought more the same day. You need to let them sit for a while after they are finished baking. |

Reviewer: Kathleen in Ohio |
| When doing this review, first, I reminded myself that these are low carb muffins, and not ones that are high in fat and high in carbs. After doing that, I had to give them a rating of 5. I have had other low carb treats that often taste dry and like cardboard. These carrot muffins were moist and tasty. In addition, they are very quick and easy to make. This makes it easy to whip them up in no time - especially when you want something good to eat and feel that you might "fall off the wagon" and eat something you shouldn't. I took a small amount of cream cheese and mixed it with some Splenda. I spread this on the muffins and it tasted just like cream cheese frosting. Both my husband and I loved them and will order them again. Highly recommended. |

| I have tried 3 of the muffin mixes, all great. However, the classic carrot is the best!! If you like coconut flavor, then these are for you. More coconut than carrot, but taste wise is perfect. I have no guilt eating these. I make no changes or additions and they are perfect. |

Reviewer: geraldine in Georgia |
| This is my favorite muffin. It's actually like eating a chocolate cupcake. I add about a heaping 1/4 cup s.f. chocolate chips (they can be purchased here), a packet of Splenda, some salt, and substitute about 1/4 cup of the liquid with Da Vinci's s.f. Chocolate syrup. Also, you can substitute yogurt for sour cream as called for in the recipe. Use the entire bag, use paper muffin cups, freeze what you don't eat and simply warm the remainder in the microwave. If you desire icing, Sweet N Low sells s.f. chocolate icing. |

Reviewer: geraldine in Georgia |
| I agree these muffin mixes are bland. But as with Mary's situation, you have to make the most of what you have. As such, these mixes are invaluable.
What is lacking besides fresh flavor is salt. You just have to experiment with how much salt you care to add.
For corn muffins - a great side for veg. chile or fish, add 1 or 2 tablespoons finely minced fresh scallions stalks, OR chives OR regular onions. One packet of Splenda, some salt, at least a tsp. or 2 of your fav.oil. Do the entire packet at once. Freeze remainder. To reuse, thaw, slice in half, add margarine or garlic margarine on the top, and toast under the broiler. For diabetics or anyone concerned with sugar intake, don't forget the sugarfree jams! A tad of s.f. Orange Marmalade could be added in place of Splenda for Cranberry Orange muffins, and so forth. Also, don't forget s.f. flavorings like DaVinci to add some flavor when a recipe calls for liquid.
Also, Egg Beaters can be sub'd for eggs. |

Reviewer: Eileen in Florida |
| The chocolate-chocolate-chip muffins are crazy good! I order them every month! I will say this though: be careful not to breathe in the muffin crumbs!!! Both my son and I choked on the crumbs (even though the muffins are moist) and so now we're just careful how we breathe (notice that we haven't stopped EATING them though LOL!). My son now refers to these muffins as "choke muffins," as in "Mom, can I have another choke muffin?" |

Reviewer: Sue in Arkansas |
| I really like these muffins as a low carb alternative. I have been a little disappointed in the carrot muffins recently. It seems the taste has changed. Maybe it is just my taste buds, but it seems to be different somehow. My favorite are the banana nut muffins. I found the chocolate chocolate chip ones to be a bit dry, but they still taste fine. I did not like the corn muffins but that is just a personal preference. I like "sweet" corn muffins and these are NOT sweet. The carrot muffins are just ok now, but I am hoping they will improve in taste or grow on me. They are so few carbs and very filling. Mine have never been done in the time suggested on the mix - they always take much longer. |

| I baked a batch of the chocolate chip muffins last night. I used fat free sour cream, fat free promise margarine and egg beaters. I also added some sugar free chocolate syrup and stevia. These muffins baked up nicely and tasted very good. I will be trying more Dixie diner muffin mixes in the very near future. |

Reviewer: Steven in Maryland |
| I have only tried the Classic Carrot Cake, and although it was very moist (I used applesauce instead of oil) which I liked, it had an extremely strong soapy taste that made it inedible. It was really terrible, so we tossed them all. I don't know if this was just a bad batch or if it's always this way, but it was really a non-starter for my wife and me. I might try some other flavors to see if they are any better. |

| I tried 2 of the mixes, and both were great! The Bran Muffin mix was the best bran muffin I have ever tasted! The Chocolate Chocolate Chip has made me decide to give up making my own low carb brownies and stick with this muffin instead. I can't wait to try others. |

Reviewer: June in Oregon |
| These muffins are a great way to have a sweet treat without adding a lot of extra calories to your day. I make them with applesauce instead of the margarine to keep the calorie content even lower and they come out quite well. It helps to make them in cupcake papers and wait until they are cold in order to have them peel away from the liner better. We've tried five varieties so far. Our current favorites are the chocolate muffins and the banana nut. The Lemon Cream was also very good. |

| Only tried banana nut and i am now ordering MORE! And also trying other ones :) They are amazing, I cannot understand how these can be low carb. You really feel like you are eating proper muffins. They are not that sweet, but you can always add sweeetner if you want to. I liked them as is. Actually I tried (and tried again and again) the dough before baking! IT WAS DELICIOUS. So if you like that licking the spoon etc, you'll appreciate this one. No weird taste!! :D |

Reviewer: Sandy in California |
| I prefer the muffin mixes over the bread mixes. I do not make them into muffins but I bake them in a loaf pan. (50 minutes) I find the muffin mix is more moist then the bread mixes of the same flavors. I have used this product for a number of years, its easy to make on the weekend, then take a few slices to work with me for my morning breakfast on weekdays. I have no time to cook during the week day mornings and this is very convenient. |

Reviewer: Laura in Florida |
| These muffins were wonderful. My daughter & I had been doing low carb/low fat for 6 weeks when we received our first order from Netrition. These muffins were the first thing I made. I used the regular recipe and they were moist - with no aftertaste. I have made the lemon pound cake since using the low fat recipe and it was just as good. With both products we had a couple and froze the rest. 20-30 seconds in the microwave and they taste fresh out of the oven. |

| Wow, I used Egg Beaters, fat free sour cream, and Smart Balance light buttery spread and these honey bran muffins came out amazing!!! I topped one half with Jok'n'al's sugar-free lemon curd and the other with The Gracious Gourmet's gingered peach apricot spread. Each muffin only has 53 calories! I am on a low calorie diet (1200 cal/day) and I restrict my carbs too, and these muffins satisfy my sweet tooth. I've made the chocolate chocolate chip muffins before and they were delicious as well! Dixie Diner has amazing products! |

| I purchased the banana nut muffins. I used to use the Atkins muffin mix; however, they no longer make it. I thought the banana nut muffins were delicious! I made them according to the instructions and then wrapped each one and froze them. What a relief to have something like a muffin instead of all bacon and eggs while I'm watching my carbs. You won't go wrong with these!! |

| I use the breakfast flavor muffin mixes for my husband's
Sunday breakfast treats. He really loves the apple cinnamon
blueberry and banana nut flavors. I generally add a little bit of Splenda to them as he thinks
they should be sweeter. These work well for his special diet (heart disease and
diabetes), and by exercising on his treadmill he is doing
well 8 yrs. after being diagnosed with congestive heart
failure. Thanks for providing the great muffin mixes. |

| Blueberry and carrot are the best; add more blueberries and carrots, respectively, for added flavor. Banana and apple are fine, too. Could jazz them up with additional nuts or spices. Great cake like texture and only minor artificial sweetener taste compared to that found in many other products. |

| I've made several flavors of the muffin mix and really like the taste of them all so far. I do tend to add a little something, either a ripe banana to the banana nut or a touch of orange oil to the cranberry orange - just because I like to play with taste. The cinnamon streusel swirl is my favorite so far but I just purchased the lemon cream for the first time. |

| My diabetic husband is very picky with food, and it was a headache trying to come up with breakfast meals that are not in the eggs/bacon/sausages mold. So I was surprised when he really liked the muffins. He's been having them for breakfast for the past three months and he hasn't tired of them. Our 10-year-old niece who sometimes visits with us also loves them. When I didn't have sour cream around the first time I was going to make them, I substituted 1 cup of cream instead. Since my husband likes it so much, I haven't bothered to try the original recipe yet. |

| Today, I made the chocolate chip muffin mix as a Labor Day treat for my family. Instead of using a muffin tin, I used a bread loaf which in my opinion, made the mix go further. The loaf was really delicious. For me, I thought that it could have been a bit sweeter. But, for a low carb product, I still found it excellent. I highly recommend this as an alternative low carb treat. |
