[QUOTE="Sid Bonkers, post: 154673, member: 19121"] Another thing to bare in mind is that as a general rule the more processed a food is the higher it will tend to push up your bg. So mashed potato will send your bg higher than a baked potato in its skin or new potatoes with their skins on. I have never been a big potato eater but I do like chips and can usually manage about 10 chips dependent on their size :D> And a little cheat is that vinegar slows down stomach emptying so if you like vinegar on your chips so much the better :D I live about an hours drive from Hastings were you can buy arguably the best fish and chips in Britain, and as an occasional treat I like to drive down for a lunch time treat of cod and chips and then just have a salad later for diner. So I trade one meal off against the other in terms of carbs. [/QUOTE]
