[QUOTE="Yorksman, post: 439736, member: 55568"] Not necessarily, it depends on what kind of potatoes, how they are cooked etc. All these things determine how they will affect your BG levels. Yes, if you are taking metformin, that will help keep your levels lower but, from what you have written, it seems that you are quite tolerant of that particular type of potato cooked in that particular way. A different potato, mashed or pureed might well be different. It's why you have to test, to find out what suits you personally and, at the beginning, take othng forgranted. If you look at the posts on porridge, you will see that it works for many but causes big spikes in others. We all have different digestive metabolisms. [/QUOTE]
