Check the packet of the chicken breast meat. A lot of supermarket brands have been marinated in brown sugar.

This morning Inwas shocked after a lie in, to wake ,late, to 9.2. I checked same meter, same blood site a moment later, and it was 5.5. Still 5.5 two minutes later on a different meter. So I claim 5.5.

Have checked and its got 0.7g of carbs and 0.7g sugar so I will be giving it a miss. I wonder if they coat it in sugar when its cooked and they dont have to divulge that its marinated, makes me wonder.
