[QUOTE="Bertyboy, post: 1792515, member: 453093"] Does anyone else find it a bit annoying that supermarkets make a big deal of "Free from...." sections, yet every time I try to hunt out something ready-made that might be suitable for a diabetic, the plethora of free-from gluten/dairy/egg/etc. stuff is always full of carbs and, even worse, sugar. Why is there no "Free from carbs" stuff for the millions of diabetics? There are a few sweets (Fruitella) that do try to achieve this, but finding carb-free desserts is, well, impossible. Even plain yoghurts (Fage) seem to have sugar in them. I found a few bake-your-own products (I recently made some "I Quit Sugar" cookies, and even with almond butter and a shed load of Stevia added, they still taste s****!), but they all seem to go heavy on coconut, which I'm not a massive fan of.
