Hey no fair! Potato skins every time! Fat, fibre? It's a winner, winner. Who said anything about wanting to lose weight? I thought we were trying to be carb-clever!!

It's true, I am not very carb clever at all! (4/7). But I was diagnosed with an HBA1c of 93, I just cut the carbs big time pretty soon after in order to save my life :). Even being moderate carbs as I went at the time I didn't eat the things suggested and asked about in the carb clever quiz. It was some months before I discovered actual low-carbing.

Being carb-clever seems complex! The difference between cous cous and bulger wheat? But then maybe that's because I have been low-carbing for so long. No mucking about with cous cous any more, alas.

Being carb-clever would be good for type 1s, then? And folks without blood glucose dysregulation who just want to make sure they don't get insulin resistant? (Thinking about my kids there. And folks with mild prediabetes who don't have to cut the carbs much to get better.)

Online quizzes are fun though. Thanks for the link.
