Low fat possible on cruise?
 

This is not a troll. I saw the post about getting kosher food and I got to thinking. I try and eat low fat. Usually i just suck it up and eat fat the week of my cruise, but I was wondering, if I asked, could I get skim milk for breakfast on the lido deck buffet breakfast? I always see the normal, fat-filled milk in the little cartons, but each one has loads of fat. Do they have skim milk back there if I ask for it?<BR><BR>What about fat-free salad dressings. I never thought to ask, & I just ask for ranch. Do they even have fat-free ranch?

Yes, they do have low fat/low calorie desserts; salad dressings; meals.<BR><BR>Ask for fat-free or skim milk.

On our recent Carnival cruise, they had a "light" dinner menu each night.<BR><BR>Personally, I prefer to "rock-out" on vacation, then slim back down once I get home....<BR><BR>And we ALWAYS use stairs on vacations! <BR><BR>

Nanette, thanks for the input, but it really doesn't help at all. I am aware of the light options in the dining room, but my specific question dealt with stuff that can be found in the buffet area on the lido deck.<BR><BR>Has anyone actually requested and recieved these fat-free things (milk dressing) on the lido deck? I am looking for experiences, not just what you would assume.

Since, with the exception of things in packages (such as milk), a cruiser could only guess at the fat content of an item, perhaps you could contact the specific cruise line directly.

Yes to fat-free milk & low-cal dressing (albeit it's the bottled version) on <BR>the Lido deck on 2 or 3 cruise lines that we've sailed.

We just got back from the Fascination and they do have skim milk, chocolate milk, 2% milk and whole milk in the buffet line. You didn't have to ask, it was out for the taking. Can get it with room service too.
