My BG has improved over the past few days,while I'm still experimenting; but, I did notice a high BG reading after the cheese, quite a few hours later, in fact. The vision is blurry too, and that usually means poor sugar assimilation.:([/quote] I'll quote and answer myself here, if no one minds.:rolleyes: Based on some quick research, I found that cheese [U]can [/U]cause BG rise hours after eaten because of the insulin index.
