Hi, has anyone tried Yucca chips? Im on a continual low carb diet, and after 5 months im pleased to say its working really well. Heres a question though..i had a portion of Yucca chips this evening whilst out for a meal..i was told it was a plant and made lovely chips.. so i thought i would give them a try..(im Type 2)..my sugars did go up to 8.0..which considering everything, i didnt think too bad as a treat, so, has anyone else tried these? Im confused as if you look at the carb content (which i did as soon as i got home) they are supposed to be worse than potatoes, which i never have. If anyone has any info or experiences on these that would be lovely? Helen

There are 38g of carbs in 100g Cassava (Yuca) which is quite high. Sadly not a great treat
