Hi, I am becoming addicted to these no added sugar mini jelly pots, I am on 3 a day, myfitnesspal loves them as much as me, is that ok ya think?
Andy
 
Haha! I'm a nearly 30 year old bloke and I love sugar free jelly and cream! Have it a few times per week.
 
Hehe, can something that tastes that good really be ok? And it only creates a spoons worth of washing up, too good to be true?
 
Thought 5 a day was the rule :)

Can't remember how many calories are in a pot (and I'm not going in the bin!), but its next to nothing.
 
Oh the joy of diabetes ! Adults discussing the joy of eating jelly lol ! Nice one Andy ! We are so easily pleased ;-)

Love this thread. A celebration of jelly - wonderful. A delicious sweet treat that comes without guilt, worry, calculations or washing up. If there was an award for top foods suitable for diabetics this could well win the proze

Oh jelly...... I told my other half I was going to get sugar free and he went in a sulk because "it's made of powder" as opposed to jelly cubes. So I lied and told him it was normal jelly once I made it and now he's none the wiser mwahahaha

Might be an issue when I'm out of the honeymoon period and he asks why I'm eating it without a jab.....

Yes I can't even say this properly as I laugh every time!

Casserole also gets me going. WHAT makes a casserole different to a stew other than a funny name?!
 
Casserole cooks in oven, stew cooks on hob. There endeth todays cookery lesson. I feel I have enriched the world. Either that or I need to reign in my ego oooops!!:smile:

I can see the book now

"Cookery FAO by Thundercat"

I cook them all in the slow cooker anyway!

Also - what's with the Americans calling jelly jello?
