So, yeah, I have sugar intolerance. But - that said, it's not the sugar that is the issue. It's my clapped out pancreas and I can inject insulin to deal with it. So, not so intolerant. Comes down to definitions and interpretations and personal opinion. A bit like the word "genocide" in 1994 when the Western World refused to use it and then said it was a "legal phrase" whilst 800,000 people in Rwanda were slaughtered!! Madleine Albright, Bill Clinton, Kofi Annan and Boutros Boutros Ghali - the blood will never wash off!! Right, maybe I should hop over to the diabetes soapbox!</blockquote>
