I'm on the Newcastle Diet again - Really missing my Burgen toast in the mornings :(

I picked up some in Waitrose this week, doing my first 'I'm now a diabetic' shop. (None of my local shops stock it.)
I've put it all in the freezer in 2-slice packs, for the inevitable day I get an irresistible urge. So I haven't actually tried it yet!

One of the varieties of Vogel bread (the original?) also has very similar numbers on carbs. The sunflower Vogel has 2 grams more carb per slice.

It might be worth trying just one slice first, testing before and 1, 2 and 3 hours afterwards. Just one slice sends my BG soaring!
But I can have 2 slices of Hovis Nimble with only a small rise in BG. I know that doesn't make much sense but that's diabetes for you ;)
