Diet drinks - the artificial sweeteners taste vile.
Having to forswear foods I have loved all my life.
Trying to find low carb meals when eating out.
I had somehow gained the impression that sweet potato was lower in carbohydrate than "normal" potato despite the name.
Apparently not.
It has Vitamin A but that seems to be the only benefit.
This explains why my experiment with deep fried sweet potato chips did not go well.
Does anyone know of a vegetable which can be deep fried to give a similar effect to "ordinary" chips but without the massive carbohydrate hit?
I did love the chips I made.
Tremendous in a Low Carbohydrate Roll.
Far to nice to be good for me, unfortunately.
Strangely, I had fish and a few chips (potato) the other night and it didn't seem to spike my BG.
Life is complicated.
