Sadly, though expensive, I ordered our last Zone Foods order, today. Tomorrow is THE LAST DAY to order. Mixed feelings, since most of the products are grain-based, and we've reduced considerably our grain consumption, especially wheat. Though we could only order the Zone Foods a few times per year, and mostly only when I had a business trip with Per Diem paying for it, I did add a few additional items today and each previous business trip onto the order for our personal use. . Fortunately with 25-30 hours of flying/travel each way to Singapore coming in a couple of weeks, I'll at least have some half-way decent Zone balanced food with me for the travel/flight/airports and at the hotel for the week.

I feel badly for the people who have come to depend on the foods as the staple of their meals. Although I have never been a fan of the foods (due to cost and the mere fact that they just didn't work well for me), I did enjoy eating the bagels and the cinnamon rolls when I had ordered them. Just letting you all know, I will be happy to help anyone that needs assistance with the transition over to the classic zone lifestyle, as I am sure some of the other zone veterans will be happy to do the same.

Me too. Started Paleo just under 1 year ago, in Sept. They only marketed them on their website. Not enough sales to keep them going. (Even with the higher cost they charged.) |

YES, for a lot of us. However, they are no longer available. |

Let's please hope that the new foods are priced more reasonably. |

I'm of the opinion that Zone products are very reasonably priced. |

I had difficulty with the prices as well. I have 5 mouths to feed here and would not have been possible on our income. |

The foods were never meant to feed a family on a daily bases. The foods were designed to help individuals get a jump start into the Zone or as a quick way to make a Zone balanced meal when you were short on time. I believe Dr Sears also wanted to help those who wanted to eat Pasta, Bagels and Bread prodcuts. I mean it was amazing stuff; If I recall correctly a Bagel had the same glycemic impact as two strawberrys... That is truly amazing. Many like Sue would incorporate the Zone foods in their recipes thus making them extremely Economical.
