ErynRNY Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Do nori sheets count as a vegetable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFChris Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Yes, but you'd have to eat a whole lot of them to get to at least 1 cup's worth of a serving. May need to supplement with other vegetables at a meal, along with protein and fat, to get sufficiently satiated. Also confirm the ingredients are compliant. Some may have off-plan oils.

ErynRNY Posted January 7, 2015 Author Share Posted January 7, 2015 Thanks, GFChris! I was thinking as I was reading your response that one would have to eat a ton of nori to get to a cup! I will definitely make sure that I don't count it as a full serving of veggies when I eat it. I am using Emerald Cove Organic Pacific Sushi Nori and the only ingredient listed is organic toasted nori seaweed. If there was any oil, they would have to list it, right?

alester212 Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 I was wondering about this too! Even though it doesn't really offer much substance I'd still love to use it to make veggie sushi rolls (no rice of course!) With a little wasabi mayo? Yum! Good to know. : ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right - that product sounds fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mollimel Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 I found a recipe about making sushi with cauliflower rice, inspired to give it a try! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erika_whole30 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 So, why can't we have deli meat that has carrageenan but we can have seaweed, from where carrageenan is extracted? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators ladyshanny Posted April 27, 2015 Administrators Share Posted April 27, 2015 Erika, please don't cross post across categories. Carrageenan is a highly processed, industrially produced chemical. Yes it comes from seaweed but it is so far removed from its original source that it is unrecognizable to your body. It's an inflammer and contributes to gut issues. There is a tonne of information online about how bad carrageenan is for you. Should you want to consume nori or seaweed, go ahead...but carrageenan is off limits for your Whole30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
