They are trying to kill youThis is the "Diabetic Meal" I was served last week, in addition to the rice it included a date and fig compote!! and packet of crackers. About the only thing that was T2 friendly was the packets of cheese. Couldn't help but wonder about the competence of the dietician who constructed the "diabetic meal".
Unfortunately. Probably "nutritionally" based on a T1 set up..."SFML" might be a safer bet ... Seafood Meal. The airlines MUST specify the contents of each of the 20 odd choices and then it's up to the catering companies to comply, but that is a ridiculous serving
I would have been tempted just to wind up "Mr Whippy?"At the seaside on Saturday the last entry on the board stating flavours at the ice cream kiosk was ‘Diabetic Vanilla’ and no I didn’t even bother asking!

I'm sure its perfectly "Eatwell" compliant .... based around starchy carbs after all.View attachment 27501 This is the "Diabetic Meal" I was served last week, in addition to the rice it included a date and fig compote!! and packet of crackers.

Sorry!Rachox, I wish you had have asked, I am extremely curious as to what that contained.
As a non-meat eater, I user to go for Lacto-ovo vegetarian. However, I got bored with pasta for every single airline meal.You can choose from Lacto-ovo-vegetarian, Vegan vegetarian, Asian/Hindu vegetarian, Muslim, Kosher, child meal, baby meal, gluten intolerant, low fat, low salt, low calorie, low lactose and diabetic
