Ok, this is a rant.
Is it just me or is there a distinct lack of consideration for diabetics in mainstream catering, especially when diabetes is suppose to be on the increase?
By this I mean, I went to a pub quiz this evening and half-way through they hand out some food. Tonight it was chips, popadoms, vegetable samosas and chicken korma. Nothing diabetic friendly So I utter those immortal words (in the topic) and have to sit there, feeling hungry watching everyone else stuff their faces. Then I'll get the comments "Oh, why aren't you eating?", "I thought it was just sugar you couldn't eat." Sigh.
And they'd run out of pork scratchings.
