Grissini Breadsticks!

Hmmm ... Where To Find Grissini Breadsticks?

Box of Grissini Breadsticks

In Dr Simeons HCG Protocol Pounds and Inches, you find a short list of HCG Foods. But for me, and most other HCG Dieters, there is one thing that helps to make the diet just a little bit better, I am of coarse talking about those thin and crunchy Grissini Bread Sticks, or Grissini Sticks as they are sometimes called.

In fact, the only negative thing that I hear people on the HCG Hormone Diet say about these delicious little Italian breadsticks, is that they are simply too hard to find - And to be honest I used to think the exact same thing.

But not anymore!

That's because awhile back I was able to locate a number of different places on the web, as well as a few stores that carry the elusive Grissini Breadstick. And although I have answered this question in blog posts, comments and on our HCG Forum, this still seems to be a fairly common conversation among HCG Diet users.

However, since my last post about where to buy Grissini Breadsticks, there have been more locations that have started carrying them. That is actually the reason I am writing about them today - I wanted to go ahead and give you an updated answer to the question...


Where Can I Buy Grissini Breadsticks?


A few stores that carry Grissini Breadsticks:


  • Safeway
  • TomThumb
  • Vons
  • Whole Foods
  • Bristol Farms
  • Lowes Foods
  • Publix
  • Cost Plus World Market
  • Rodman's
  • London Drugs (in Canada)
  • Braum's
  • Walmart

As you can see there are a lot of grocery stores that carry Grissini Breadsticks. But the real trick is locating them on the shelves - Some stores like to stock them in the bakery or with other Italian foods, and some put them where they should be, right next to the Melba Toast and crackers. So be sure to ask someone if you can't find them in your local supermarket.

Now if you are like me and you like to save yourself the trouble of a wild goose chase, you can simply order them through Amazon - They even carry the ever so popular brand Granforno.

Of coarse one other option is to create your very own Grissini Sticks with this easy Grissini Recipe that I posted a little while back. Check out the post here ... Homemade HCG Grissini Breadsticks.

Or you might do what lots of other HCG'ers do, forget about Grissini Breadsticks altogether and use Melba Toast!

NOTE: Be sure to always check the ingredients of the Grissini Breadsticks when using them for the HCG Hormone Diet. When Dr. Simeons listed them in the HCG Protocol he referred to them as "Breadstick Grissino", which are actually made in Italy. So just be sure that the ingredients listed for the brand that you prefer are not going to interfere with your diet. I do know that the Granforno Brand is safe to use During Phase1, Phase 2 and Phase 3 of the HCG Diet.


Do you prefer to eat Melba Toast or Grissini Breadsticks with your 500 Calorie Diet?
