Oshkosh Posted November 30, 2008 #1 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Hi I have diabetes and was just wondering about sugar free sodas (is it only diet coke ?) and sugar free desserts, etc? we sailed on carnival before and they had desserts but usually the soda choices are limited to caffeine full soda... thanks OSHKOSH :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slowpoke58 Posted November 30, 2008 #2 Share Posted November 30, 2008 I don't know about the drinks, but they do have sugar free deserts. slowpoke58 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shelbylook Posted November 30, 2008 #3 Share Posted November 30, 2008 To my knowledge, they offer Diet Coke as a sugar-free beverage and a lemon-lime soda (Coke product) as the caffeine free offering. They do not have readily available a caffeine free diet soda so we're taking on our own CF Diet Coke and Fresca. I can't have the sugar and the DH can't have the caffiene so we have no choice.

VASOXFANN Posted November 30, 2008 #4 Share Posted November 30, 2008 There was Diet Coke. I think there was unsweetened iced tea that you could sweeten with your choice of artificial sweeteners (Equal, Splenda, the pink stuff, etc.). I remember seeing several sugar-free desserts at the Windjammer, and at least one sugar-free dessert offering on the MDR dinner menu each night. My DH had the sugar-free cheesecake one night, and he really enjoyed it. You can also alert RCL so they can accommodate your special diet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kabux Posted November 30, 2008 #5 Share Posted November 30, 2008 On Majesty last month - I got the soda card and could get Diet Sprite (it only came in cans but was included in the soda card!!!) Hope this helps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grannycb Posted November 30, 2008 #6 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Have you thought about bringing Crystal Light Singles? You can get ice water and mix it yourself. That way you know you are getting the right beverage. I've gotten regular soda by accident at least once on every cruise. (I'm a diabetic.) I'll try the singles idea myself on our next cruise.

abridalmaven Posted November 30, 2008 #7 Share Posted November 30, 2008 I have always been able to get Diet Sprite. But I also carry those singles by Crystal light, and other brands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrp96 Posted December 1, 2008 #8 Share Posted December 1, 2008 They have Diet Sprite available in the cans. I have not been able to get it on the soda card in the past so I would not get the soda card thinking you can get it. Some people have occasionally reported being able to get Caffeine Free Diet Coke on some ships, but I have never seen it onboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehfl Posted December 1, 2008 #9 Share Posted December 1, 2008 They have diet coke, although, obviously, with diabetes, tea would be a better option for controlling blood sugar. They have unsweetened icead tea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meansun Posted December 1, 2008 #10 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Make sure you try the Sugar Free Coconut Layer Cake. By far my favorite dessert! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynn the Cruiser Posted December 1, 2008 #11 Share Posted December 1, 2008 The sugar free desserts are fabulous!!!! The coconut cake is to die for!!!! There is also at least 2 different kinds of SF desserts in the Windjammer, plus a SF cookie selection!!! The other areas have SF cookies and desserts , also like the Cafe!!:D:D:D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vwalk Posted December 2, 2008 #12 Share Posted December 2, 2008 It's my understanding that you can carry soda on the boat. I'm planning on putting a luggage tags on a couple 18 packs and have the soda delivered to my room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
