June 30, 2021Reviewer: Raven in California* Light and airy. Great flavor. The closest thing to a regular pancake I've found so far. My only complaint is that it's hard to get color on them; mine came out very pale.
-
June 08, 2021Reviewer: Tina in Colorado* I have been purchasing this pancake mix for some time. I enjoy the taste and texture of these high protein, lower carb pancakes. I cut the recipe in half and make a good size pancake for breakfast and I am satisfied for several hours. I add blueberries when they are in season. Highly recommend this mix.

May 23, 2021Reviewer: A customer in Colorado* Love it! New hope has always been my favorite pancake mix. Reminds me of my grandmother. Was thrilled when a low carb version came out! Love love love it!!!!!
-
March 03, 2021Reviewer: Gladys in North Carolina* I think this is the best. I make waffles' they are tasty good with blueberries.
-
January 23, 2021Reviewer: A customer in North Carolina* These taste like regular pancakes. They come out good and fluffy.
-
June 15, 2020Reviewer: A guest* Makes fantastic pancakes and waffles, add some blueberries or apples even better
-
April 14, 2020Reviewer: A guest* Fantastic pancakes, especially since you can’t get the Big Train brand anymore.
-
April 14, 2020Reviewer: A customer in South Dakota* This low carb pancake/waffle mix is one of the best that's out there. It is easy to fix and a nice break from eggs. I've purchased this a lot & have always been happy with the taste & quality of it.
-
March 09, 2020Reviewer: Stacy in Connecticut* I was surprised at how good this actually tasted. Most times you get a sugar free product that tastes bland. This has a hint of vanilla taste and is delicious!!
-
February 10, 2020Reviewer: BARBARA in Florida* This mix was terrible will not purchase again, followed directions but results weren’t good.

-
November 20, 2019Reviewer: Linda M in Florida* LOVE THIS MIX, husband just became a type 2 diabetic but loved his Sunday waffles. New Hope Mills really fills the bill. Also the muffin mix is as great and the pancake mix.
-
November 18, 2019Reviewer: Marlene in Oklahoma* Makes excellent flavored, low carb pancakes.
-
1 of 1 people found the following review helpfulOctober 31, 2019Reviewer: kenneth in New York* Makes excellent keto pancakes, easy to prepare, best with a little vanilla added and I use a liberal amount of butter.
-
October 31, 2019Reviewer: Michael in Washington* As others have said, the Big Train brand was a real winner. I've been looking for a replacement ever since it was (I guess) discontinued and have been disappointed again and again, until now. It seems any of the mixes where they just add water are pretty gross, but any version where you add eggs and oil is better, and that's the recipe here. I added melted butter as my oil. Next time I may add some vanilla.
I'm genuinely surprised at the bad reviews regarding taste, as I found these to be quite tasty. It's a lower carb product, of course, so no low carb stuff tastes the same as high carb, but, for a morning pancake with butter and syrup (I use Lakanto -- which doesn't taste like maple, but has its own delicious, fruity kind of flavor) these are a win, for me.
Batter is a bit odd, very thick and fluffy, so I watered it down a bit, and find I have to manually kind of spread it to create a pancake, but the end result cooked up beautifully. Making about 4 inch pancakes, a double batch of batter made 12 pancakes in total and used well over half of the box, so, as others have said, it's a lot to pay for pancake mix, considering the small yield, but, again, that's pretty typical in the low carb world, that things cost more (because eating bad is made much more affordable -- how crazy is that??).
Only real concern is the carb count. With five carbs per 1/4 cup of mix, six little pancakes is ten carbs, which is half the count for the day on strict keto. Of course, far superior to regular ones that have more carbs than that for a single pancake, but, more of an occasional treat here, due to not being as low carb as one might like.
I'm still giving five stars because it works for keto, in moderation, and really made a terrific and tasty stack of flapjacks. Smothered with butter and with a decent zero carb syrup, it was truly satisfying as a keto pancake alternative and, besides Big Train, is easily the best mix I've found.
My brother had a few with sugar free peanut butter and loved that match-up. I might get some no carb jelly and see how that is, but this will be a regular staple item from now on.

October 22, 2019Reviewer: A customer in Missouri* They are my go to Saturday morning treat. Very good.
-
September 16, 2019Reviewer: A customer in Nevada* Great price! Great product! Due to personal choice, I have only tried making pancakes with the content. Easy and quick to make and tastes great!
-
2 of 2 people found the following review helpfulSeptember 11, 2019Reviewer: Laury in Georgia* I don’t really follow the exact recipe on the box. I’ve added my own little twist and these literally taste like the best pancakes ever! I always buy multiple boxes at a time when I order. Here’s how I make mine as I found the original recipe to be a little bland.
1/4 c dry mix 1/4 c unsweetened vanilla almond milk 1 egg 1 tbs cinnamon 1 tbs vanilla extract 1 tsp brown sugar (optional)
It makes 3 medium pancakes, or 2 large pancakes. Pair with sugar free maple syrup and you won’t know the difference. Literally the BEST.
-
September 07, 2019Reviewer: A customer in Oregon* These were awesome, whole family loved them! Wish you could get more in one box or order a larger box since one box makes 8 pancakes. We will order these again though.
-
September 05, 2019Reviewer: tina in North Carolina* Giving them a 5 because of all the low carb mixes I have tried from Dixie to LC to Carbalose, this is the best mix if you are trying to get pancakes or waffles and keto. Sure you can try the make at home with coconut or almond flour. I have really tried everything short of not eating pancakes and waffles at all. Eating eggs and bacon 7 days a week gets really boring. These do not get thick like your normal fluffy pancakes but you can solve that by adding some baking powder and baking soda to the mix. I also do not use water but I use carbonated unflavored water. That gives it some nice fluff. Then make sure the griddle is super hot and let your mix sit in fridge for maybe 10 minutes after mixing and take it out and stir and if way to thick just add a little more carbonated water. I am going to introduce these to my in-laws on our camping trip. Have already tricked them with the Great Low carb pastas making mac and cheese and they had no idea. Said it tasted just like mac and cheese.
-
July 20, 2019Reviewer: Traci in New York* Goodbye coconut flour pancakes, you have been replaced! The pancakes I made with this low-carb mix were very light and fluffy and tasted great, just like regular pancakes. They didn’t bubble up and I was somewhat expecting them to be undercooked and heavy. So glad I was wrong! I used ghee instead of oil and added a smidge more water. I also sifted the mix and used a whisk.

-
June 28, 2019Reviewer: A guest* Excellent!
I'm often disappointed in Low Carb products, including several other LC pancake mixes I've tried. But New Hope Mills completely surpassed my hopes of "edible" and served up some of the nicest pancakes I've ever had, Low Carb or "regular."
They mix up easily--I used milk instead of water--and brown beautifully. You can flip them easily without them falling apart, and they're probably the fluffiest, best-tasting pancakes I've ever had.
I'd give them 15 stars if I could, and I'm going to share the word in my FaceBook food group.
I'm ordering several more boxes today.

May 30, 2019Reviewer: Wilma in Florida* The pancakes were very good.
-
May 21, 2019Reviewer: Michelle in Ohio* One word great!!!!!
-
April 30, 2019Reviewer: Sal in Connecticut* Moist, tasty, perfect.
-
March 24, 2019Reviewer: Daisy in California* These pancakes are bland and don’t cook well from the inside.
-
1 of 1 people found the following review helpfulMarch 20, 2019Reviewer: Nicole in New Jersey* These are the best tasting low carb pancakes that I've ever had, just wish they were also gluten free. I added some egg whites to the batter to help make them a bit fluffier.
-
March 12, 2019Reviewer: Michelle in Georgia* It tastes great, just like a waffle is supposed to taste without the worry of a lot of carbs.
-
March 08, 2019Reviewer: A guest* We use this to make waffles. They come out perfect every time, crispy on the outside, fluffy and soft on the inside. They actually turn out better than with the traditional high carb mix. Absolutely delicious. You would not know they are low carb.
-
February 26, 2019Reviewer: Alexis in Washington* First of all the smell of these.... YUMMY!! From the time we opened the box I was already hooked. We have tried so many recipes, mixes, powders etc. and these were by far the very best. One 1/2 cup serving made 3 pancakes and fed both my husband and I. Cooked all the way through not doughy or runny. They are VERY heavy more like a French toast consistency.
-
February 19, 2019Reviewer: Stephanie in Minnesota* We really liked this pancake mix! No weird taste or texture. Very good.
-
1 of 1 people found the following review helpfulJanuary 08, 2019Reviewer: Megan in Maryland* For some reason Big Train stopped making carb smart pancakes. I was worried about finding something that was similar to real pancakes. This was just as good! Will order again!
-
December 30, 2018Reviewer: James in North Carolina* This product was recommended to take the place of "Big Train" pancake mix which was discontinued. New Hope was more than adequate. Had good favor and texture for a mix. Thanks to Netrition for the heads up.
-
1 of 1 people found the following review helpfulDecember 30, 2018Reviewer: DAVID in Michigan* I would not recommend this pancake mix. It is soggy and flat. No bubbles like normal pancakes. This is more egg than flour which makes no sense. Do not understand how this product got so good of ratings. I am so disappointed. Have tried a lot of pancake mix and recipes and nothing compares to Big Trian. So sad that Big Train discontinued their pancake mix. Big Train was the very best on the market.
-
December 29, 2018Reviewer: Gary in California* We have been using Big Train mix for years and it wasn't available at Netrition this order and decided to try this as an alternative. It is okay but we prefer Big Train. The ingredients are different.
-
December 09, 2018Reviewer: Timothy in Connecticut* These pancakes are great! I hardly miss the high-carb ones at all. Big Train used to be my go-to for pancake and waffle mix but I can't seem to find them anywhere these days, so I gave New Hope Mills a try. They are definitely a suitable replacement and I have had great results with them. I use more water than the box recipe calls for but that will ultimately come down to your preference. I will try making waffles with them soon!
-
October 27, 2018Reviewer: Nadia in Connecticut* Amazing waffles! Follow the recipe on the back for delicious waffles. Not disappointed! Highly recommend! Will be buying a few more boxes.
-
October 21, 2018Reviewer: Laura in New York* Delicious tasting and 2 to a serving. My favorite!
-
1 of 1 people found the following review helpfulAugust 01, 2018Reviewer: Andrea in Louisiana* Absolutely LOVE these low carb pancakes for our Keto lifestyle. We also use this mix (with a egg) to use as crust on our chicken tenders and our chicken fried steaks.... even used it as our batter on catfish. Tastes wonderful as a low carb alternative for higher carb flour! Win Win!!
-
June 19, 2018Reviewer: Mary in Alabama* This pancake mix turned out really well. It was easy to work with and tasted good. My only complaint is that there is not a lot of mix in each box.
-
June 07, 2018Reviewer: John in West Virginia* Great pancakes I made them this morning and put the Walden farms walnut maple on them and they were awesome. My kids and wife cleaned their plates also. We also just made the switch to eating healthier so that says a lot about the flavor.
-
May 18, 2018Reviewer: Dianna in California* I love this mix! I make my husbands and then add more liquid for mine as I like the thin Swedish style pancakes... perfect!!! Have re-ordered several times.
-
March 11, 2018Reviewer: Joyce in Florida* Yummy good, will order again.
-
February 18, 2018Reviewer: A guest* Really enjoyed my pancakes. Light and fluffy and a good taste. I will order again.
-
December 26, 2017Reviewer: A guest* Very tasty!
-
November 28, 2017Reviewer: A guest* I like it for making waffles but use less water to have a thicker batter for the waffle mix. I also add ground flaxseed and pecans to the batter before cooking.
-
November 06, 2017Reviewer: A guest* These make the best waffles ever! We could never make waffles this good before using the traditional flour recipe, so we didn't use our waffle maker. Decided to try it with this mix, perfect, crispy on the outside, thick and soft on the inside. Taste is fabulous.
-
August 01, 2017Reviewer: Laura in California* Great for low carbers!
-
May 19, 2017Reviewer: Laura in California* I love this pancake mix! It is so filling. I use sugar free syrup with it and wow it is SO good!
-
April 28, 2017Reviewer: Scott in Massachusetts* Everyone in the house likes these - whether they are eating low carb or not. I mix the whole package at once using 5 eggs, 4 TBS of butter and a teaspoon of ground cinnamon. Priced a bit high at nearly $10/lb vs $1/lb for Krusteaz normal mix - oh well. I keep ordering this nearly every week regardless...
-
April 19, 2017Reviewer: Katie in Tennessee* I was skeptical to try anything low-carb at first until I read about this product in a blog and I decided to try it and I'm so glad I did. I am a fan for life! The taste wasn't "cardboard" like most low carb foods. I cook them in my waffle maker and they turn golden brown and fluffy. I also love how you can make extra and they warm up just as good for the next couple days.
-
March 16, 2017Reviewer: Erica in Missouri* I wanted to like these. I really did. I've been searching for a good low-carb pancake for what feels like forever now. Sadly, this is not what I've been looking for. Maybe my hopes were too high. I was hoping for a Hungry Jack mix type REAL pancake, but this isn't very much like a real pancake whatsoever. It is mealy to me. I am not a fan of the texture. The taste isn't ideal to me, either. I don't know what I'd call these, but they aren't pancakes ... at least not what I think of when I think of pancakes.
-
January 29, 2017Reviewer: Patricia in Colorado* This mix is fantastic. I love that I do not have to miss out on pancakes with my low carb lifestyle. Delicious with sugar free syrup or whipped cream or nut butters.
-
1 of 1 people found the following review helpfulOctober 25, 2016Reviewer: Heather in Oklahoma* I spent long enough on the low carb train to appreciate a good low-carb product. This is NOT one of them. The texture is denser and drier than normal pancake mix. Adding more water still did not mimic normal pancakes. Worse than the texture was the flavor, or lack there of. This mix tasted like cardboard. Even adding fruit, nuts, syrup, etc... they still tasted like nothing and did not satisfy any kind of pancake craving. Skip this one
-
July 11, 2016Reviewer: Karen in Florida* My favorite low carb pancakes so far! So close to real : )
-
August 26, 2015Reviewer: ELIZABETH in North Carolina* It's not IHOP but it's the next best thing! I go through these boxes like crazy, I love breakfast and especially love pancakes! I add a little Splenda into my mix when I'm making it because it does tend to be a little bland without it, and sometimes I'll add Ghiradelli cocoa powder for an extra chocolate boost. I always use the Sugar Free Mini Chocolate Chips because I'm a big kid and absolutely love chocolate chip pancakes and top it off with Walden Farms pancake syrup. The syrup absorbs rather quickly so I usually have to use quite a bit but it gives me the stigma of eating unhealthy while actually not doing bad on my low carb lifestyle!
-
February 20, 2015Reviewer: Mike in North Carolina* Awesome pancake taste. Not gritty but smooth pancake just like another brand but to my choice much better! Can't wait for this one and it's not just for breakfast.
-
December 29, 2014Reviewer: Scott in Florida* I bought this and a box of the Maple Grove Farms pancake mix and compared them head to head - no difference. The carb count is the same, the prep ingredients needed are the same. They both cooked up fluffy and delicious, I couldn't tell the difference between them and "real" pancakes. The New Hope Mills is slightly more expensive.
-
August 14, 2014Reviewer: Meghan in Ohio* This was better than I expected for a low carb food. I put vanilla in the mix to spruce up the flavor. However, there was a slight eggy taste to it so perhaps I will use less egg than the recipe called for and see how that turns out. Overall, I think I would purchase again.
-
August 10, 2014Reviewer: MELANIE in New York* I just made these this morning...YUM!!! I added chopped walnuts, vanilla extract and a touch of stevia...I put butter and s/f syrup on and all I can say is YUM!!!
-
June 29, 2014Reviewer: audrey in South Carolina* spongy texture, dry taste, not fluffy. looks like crepes and with the eggs tastes like a dry French toast. I added the polander sugar free jam in place of syrup and a teaspoon of whipped cream, not terrible but not something I would look forward to eating either. ill keep looking.
-
January 13, 2014Reviewer: Madeline in New York* Keeping in mind that these are low carb pancakes, my expectations were not that high. These turned out to be extremely good. From my experience, the first time I made them I found them to be bland. All I had to do was sprinkle a tad of salt into the mixture and they turned out delicious. I have them quite often and am ordering another box now to keep on hand. They are even better if you add some fresh blueberries to them or sugar free chips if you prefer.
-
January 06, 2014Reviewer: A customer in New York* This pancake mix is great! It does not drastically raise my blood sugar like other "low-carb" pancake mixes have. I found the mix to be a bit bland, so I add a few pinches of salt, a few drops of EZ Sweetz, and vanilla extract to the batter. I also recommend Walden Farms pancake syrup.
-
December 10, 2013Reviewer: James in Texas* A disappointing product. I have been using a Carbquick recipe from one of the forums for pancakes and they're wonderful. I gave this a try today and it doesn't even come close. First is the carb count (12 carbs/6 fiber) which is much higher than the CarbQuick recipe (add 1 or 2 more for the two eggs).
Second is the taste. People often complain that Low-Carb products taste spongy and that's the case here spongy with an off taste. The pancakes are not a rich tasting as the Carbquick recipe either. All in all, a failure.
I can't recommend this and will throw away the remainder.
-
November 04, 2013Reviewer: Darnelle in Louisiana* Was desperate for a low carb pancake/waffle mix that wasn't terrible tasting. So excited to find this! We go through 2-3 boxes a week in my family! Really no reason for me to ever eat a 40 carb plate of pancakes again!
-
September 23, 2013Reviewer: Wendy in New York* I find this mix makes a very nice pancake. I prefer small thin pancakes so I add additional water to the mix and make kind of "silver dollar" sized pancakes. I find it it is not even necessary to add the oil if you are watching calories as well as carbs. I don't know how this would work for the regular thick pancakes, but it is fine for my 14-17 little thin guy I make form a single serving portion of this mix. It works for me and is really very low carb, which suits my diabetic issues and gives me a real treat breakfast .
-
April 23, 2013Reviewer: Tanya in Arkansas* I made these for the first time tonight. WOW! They were delicious. I added some sugar free maple syrup (no net carbs due to sugar alcohol). This was such a treat for dinner. The pancakes really puffed up and cooked like normal pancakes. They tasted delicious, especially since I haven't had them since Thanksgiving. I highly suggest this product!
-
February 03, 2013Reviewer: James in Minnesota* I recently found this New Hope Mills mix. I can't remember enough to say that this is exactly as good, but it is certainly better than any other low carb mix I have used in the intervening years. No---these are not substitutes for Perkins with strawberry glaze & whipped cream. However, with fresh berries and some low carb syrup, I feel like I just had some pretty good pancakes. Add a couple of turkey sausage links and it was a good meal.
-
July 16, 2012Reviewer: Ali in New York* As a Pancake addict, this product did not satisfy me at all because it is nowhere close to the real pancakes. The pancakes that comes from it are very then with no taste at all. I can assure that you will have a better Pancake alternative by mixing only Vanilla Whey Protein and Eggs. that is even much lower in carb than this product
-
July 04, 2012Reviewer: Donald in New York* Everything you want in a low-carb pancake....except taste.
-
April 06, 2012Reviewer: Debra in Indiana* These are great when I add flax meal, walnuts and sf chocolate chips.
-
November 27, 2011Reviewer: Sharlyn in Texas* It is so nice to be able to eat a low carb pancake and sugar free pancake syrup for breakfast. Had some this morning and was satisfied and full. One doesn't feel deprived for sure. Thanks for having this item by New Hope Mills. Taste Great!!!!! Thanks Netrition......
-
August 29, 2011Reviewer: Karen in Nebraska* Use coconut oil in the mix and on the griddle and add a few drops of ez sweet or a little davinci syrup for flavor and these are terrific. For 3 carbs, they are the best I've had to date.
-
May 21, 2010Reviewer: Dave in Florida* I've tried all the mixes and this tastes very much like all of them, sort of spongy in texture and with a bland taste.
-
April 03, 2010Reviewer: Lynda in Michigan* this is by far the BEST mix for low carb diets.. I love to mix it up and make waffles..YUM with butter and sugar free syrup!
-
December 19, 2009Reviewer: Cindy in Kansas* I give very few 1 star ratings however, this is one. I made a waffle and followed the directions. 2 eggs for 1/2 a cup of mix is a 50:50 ratio and it tasted like it. Spongy, rubbery, eggy with an off taste. Back to my Maple Groves Farms or even better, Flax Z Snax pancake mix. That truly is fab!

November 23, 2009Reviewer: royaune in South Dakota* This is a great pancake mix. My teenage daughter was willing to try it instead of bisquick heart healthy mix. She thought it was great. She now asks for the "healthy pancakes" on Sundays. I also got her converted to sugar free syrup too. Expensive but worth it.
-
November 18, 2009Reviewer: Gary in Pennsylvania* Convenient packaging - easy to mix and cook and tastes great.
-
August 07, 2009Reviewer: Walt in Vermont* Tastes kind of bland, like cardboard. Probably ok if you flavored it with something.
-
May 10, 2009Reviewer: Joanne in Ohio* I really liked this mix! Pancakes were fluffy and tasted great! I make them ahead of time and then just reheat in the microwave. Really saves me time in the morning.
-
April 22, 2009Reviewer: Donya in North Carolina* This mix makes an amazing waffle. I over-estimated how much batter to use, not realizing how much it would rise in the waffle-maker! I need to figure out a better syrup or topping option, as the syrup I used was a bit strange and left an aftertaste, but the waffle itself was great and satisfied a craving I've had for weeks... And the entire reason I bought the baking gift box in the first place. Highly recommend for anyone craving a waffle or pancakes. (even better drenched in butter... Yum!)
-
September 23, 2008Reviewer: Elizabeth in New York* THESE PANCAKES ROCK! MY FAMILY LOVES THEM. THEY ARE THE CLOSEST TO HOMEMADE PANCAKES I HAVE EVER HAD. THEY ARE QUICK TO MAKE AND WOULD BE VERY SAD IF I COULDN'T HAVE THEM IN THE MORN.
-
August 30, 2008Reviewer: A customer in Virginia* My husband and I eat them for lunch and dinner. Amazing! Thank you New Hope Mills for carrying the old Atkins pancake mix. It is the best! 50 pounds lighter and loving it.

We were with 2 other families that have small children. I made regular pancakes and New Hope Mills pancakes. I didn't tell them which ones were which. They ate all of the New Hope Mills and none of the others. It was also my first time having them and I am ordering more.

2 of 2 people found the following review helpfulFebruary 24, 2008Reviewer: A customer in Ohio* We have been living the low carb life style since 1996, this is the best pancake/waffle mix we have found!!! I have made the best Belgium waffles we have ever tasted with this mix. Everything turns out light & fluffy, not flat & soggy like some low carb products. Sometimes I add vanilla for a change, but this product is a keeper.
-
February 16, 2008Reviewer: Myles in Illinois* These are alright. The Maple Grove Farms mix is MUCH better.
-
1 of 1 people found the following review helpfulOctober 01, 2007Reviewer: Marla in Michigan* This mix is not very good. After reading all the reviews I was shocked at how bad it tasted. The pancakes look amazing. They cook up golden brown and smell promising but the taste is not as good as the looks. I was surprised that 1/4 cup of mix called for 2 eggs. That seems like a lot and I could really taste the egg. I am not that into pancakes, I actually decided to buy the mix so my boyfriend and I could have the same breakfast for a change. He said he would never eat them again. If you are really craving pancakes then give them a try. If you are only thinking about buying this to try something new, it isn't good. Don't waste your money.
-
September 10, 2007Reviewer: Don in Vermont* Good stuff; having pancakes for breakfast makes the low-carb thing feel a bit more normal. Not what your mama used to make (a bit bland and not real fluffy) but not bad overall. These aren't quite as good as the Maple Grove Farms, but they have 3 net grams compared with Maple Grove's 6.
-
September 03, 2007Reviewer: Marian in Virginia* Great waffles! Mix formerly sold under Atkins brand name. Mfg. also makes the best muffin mixes ... hope they will be stocked soon.
-
August 22, 2007Reviewer: A customer in New York* I am very pleased... I added DaVinci's sugar-free french vanilla syrup. Even my husband , who is neither a pancake nor sugar-free fan, enjoyed them! I am thrilled about being able to have pancakes while on a low carb diet.
-
August 07, 2007Reviewer: Caroline in Illinois* This was soooo delicious! Use SF Walden Farms pancake syrup and add fresh chopped strawberries to the wet mix and they are the best pancakes in the world... and a great source of protein for those bodybuilders who love pancakes but need the protein and lower carbs! ( LIKE ME LOL ) This rocks. I went from my Sunday pancake treat to having pancakes for dinner now as well about 2 times a week :)
-
1 of 1 people found the following review helpfulAugust 03, 2007Reviewer: Sharon in Pennsylvania* Not a fan of pancakes, but I like this mix for waffles. Unlike some low carb mixes, this mix gives you a crunchy outside, and a light, soft middle! I just add water and a little liquid egg white.
