I just found a Thousand Island dressing by No Carb Gourmet at my local
supermarket (Shaw's). Zero carbs and low fat. Haven't tried it yet
but am looking forward to it. If you Google it, you will find an
online source...

....joy

I'm not sure if they have Thousand Island but try the Renee line of
dressings. I know they have a website but I do not have it in my
bookmarks at the moment.

You can make your own LC version using mayo, sugar-free ketchup and
pickles...aren't those the normal ingredients?

Agreed.

I second this one. I use Carb-Option Ketchup, and Dill Pickle Relish (not
Sweet). You could use Sweet, or add a packet of Splenda instead, if you
need that component of the flavor.

I didn't think about this until I re-read my post... A friend had come up
with a Pesto/May spread (ratio 4M : 1P). hadn't thought about it as a salad
dressing, but it would probably work. Meaning I will try it later. :-)

I have to wonder...how is it these sauces are calorie free?

Per 2 tbps serving. Am sure that there are some calories lurking in the
whole bottle.

Their thousand islands is okay but it is baby pink, really bright
pale, fleshy pink... and it just doesn't look right. The color
honestly weirds me out.

I use mayo (nearly 0 carbs), Heniz or Hellmans 1-carb ketchup, and I
add some mustard(nearly 0 carbs) to make my own thousand island. I'm
never sure which is which, Thousand Island or Russian--since I think
they are so similar. I think one has relish the other doesn't. I think
one may be a lil spicier

The low-carb ones I've found are very artificial and VERY VERY pricey.
It is too simple to mix up a batch of this myself. I do

4 parts mayo
2 parts low carb ketchup (normally you use chili sauce, and I'm a
ketchup/tomato freak so I may actually use 3 parts)
1 part mustard (spicy brown is my choice)
1-2 parts relish (dill not sweet, should be 0 to 1 carb)
couple of shakes of hot sauce (optional)

Most thousand island recipes use:
* finely chopped hard boiled egg, also a good low carb addition.
* finely diced onion or onino powder
* a little vinegar

I'd avoid the vinegar unless you like that taste. Normally I think the
vinegar would be cut by the sweetness of the chili sauce(it's sweeter
than ketchup), which would be somewhat absent here.

Now the color issue I must agree with, but the taste is good for the little
added carbs or calories.
