you have clearly spent too much time thinking about this subject"bad" carbs have safe words.
good carbs don't know what a safe word is.0 -
That cookie looks as big as your head.....VERY good Carb.
They're actually rather small...however, they do have a family-sized one that's about as big as a large pizza. With that one you have the option of 4 different flavors of cookie and there are 7 scoops of ice cream. I believe it's called the "Diabetic Coma" on the menu; but I could be mistaken...
If by "family-sized" you mean it feeds just me and by "4 different flavors" you mean chocolate chip, then we are on to something here0 -

Why is a macadamia OK and other nuts not - you are being a bit nutist!0 -
as far as ice cream cakes go would Carvel Ice cream cake with the crunch in the middle be a good carb?
Someone on my FL suggested this too- I honestly don't know. More research needs to be done. But frozen cake is still nasty.
Totes good carb - no soggy cake involve!0 -

I must not have been clear about the nuts rule- nuts don't belong in CHOCOLATE CHIP cookies. Other flavors can have nuts. White chocolate macadamia is a well balanced good carb. This is why I offered to help- the rules can get really confusing.
any rule that excludes walnuts + chocolate chips is a rule made to be broken. no safe word. this cookie just says "eat me". and means it.

So a chocolate cookie is ok to have nuts in it but not a chocolate chip one?0 -

White Chocolate- definitely.
Regular chocolate chip with nuts- bad carb.
Though that picture WinnerVictorious just posted is making me think twice. But again, this is about science, not my preferences.0 -

You can get just chocolate chip..
Or...you can get the sampler...3 regular sized pizookies...although, that could be considered the "diet" version. And that would make it a bad carb...0 -

I'm seriously offended that I have never heard of this BJ's place before. Around here BJ's is a costco-like bulk store.0 -
The pizookie at BJ's, where does it fall? I plan on getting one this weekend. Yay or nay?
Which pizookie are we talking about? The list includes:
chocolate chip
peanut butter
white chocolate/macadamia
oatmeal raisin walnut
oreo
red velvet
raspberry white chocolate almond
triple chocolate made with Ghirardelli chocolate
HOW DARE YOU.
There is chocolate chip, and there are imposters. Choose wisely.
I have cheated with the red velvet...I hang my head in shame
White Chocolate Macadamia. 'Nuff said.0 -
No way! Raspberry is the best! Good carb!!! But, strawberry is yummy as well.0

Bean, BJs is a restaurant and brewery in SoCal. (I personally don't go there for the beer.) The Pizookie is their signature dessert (because they also tout their excellent "Chicago-style" deep dish pizza. It's pretty good, but it's still west coast pizza.) everyone should have a Pizookie before they die. It should be mandatory.
ETA: There are no BJs Cost Club stores around here that I know of. (My sister in PA has a membership, though, so I've been to one before.) We have Costco. (They do not sell Pizookies.)0
