Guest guest Posted August 6, 2002 Report Share Posted August 6, 2002 My daughter says it is available in Wisconsin also. But we haven't tried it. My daughter wasn't sure Blue Pepsi sounded very good.

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2002 Report Share Posted August 6, 2002 Hi Everett, I got in enough trouble as a kid reading Braille in the dark! I can't imagine having glow in the dark food! I'd really get in trouble, if I were still a kid! I went to a party yesterday where the koolaid or whatever drink it was was not the color it should be. The grape was red and the cherry was green. My daughter said they weren't too bad, but people sure hesitated to drink them when they weren't the colors they should be. But they had sugar, so I couldn't have any. My sugar went up enough just being in the hot humid air. Have a wonderful day everyone! Re: Blue Pepsi > Hello all, > > Marketing is an amazing thing...

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2002 Report Share Posted August 6, 2002 Since blue is my favorite color, I kind of like the idea of blue mashed potatos!

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2002 Report Share Posted August 6, 2002 My daughter tried the vanila Coke and she didn't like it. Being as nosy as I am I had to take just a tiny taste! I love it! She offered it to me, but since it was one of the 20 ounce bottles I told her I could do that. I asked her what she was trying to do to me, and she just laughed. But i thought it was very good!

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2002 Report Share Posted August 6, 2002 Thinking of the different colored milk and the green catsup, there just might be an advantage in being totally blind! LOL! What interesting meal combinations we could have! It could make being diabetic more interesting!

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2002 Report Share Posted August 6, 2002 I have been having a lot of lows in the 34 to 39 range lately. I used to feel the lows when I would hit around 98. But I don't feel them any more until, like Diane says, it is too late. I haven't passed out yet, but sometimes it is very hard for me to remember what it is I'm supposed to do. The last time I did that, on Sunday morning, I decided to have a individual sized thing of pudding. But I couldn't pull the paper off the top so I could eat it. I was grateful my daughter was home to help me. It is just so hard to think when I get like that. I don't have any idea why that is happening so often now, but I am having them about every 2 days or so at some time during the day. I can't even find a pattern for it. It is scary.

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2002 Report Share Posted August 6, 2002 Do you know they have green Tobasco Sauce? It's a bit milder than the original and tastes real good!!!!

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2002 Report Share Posted August 6, 2002 That really would be scary as well, . I never know when a low will show up. This afternoon I was feeling low and started eating before checking my sugar. I ate some potato chips, which was a really dumb thing to eat. Then I checked it because I still felt terrible and it was only 74 so I don't know how low it was to begin with. But then it is taking me over a half hour or more to stop feeling those feelings of very low sugar and I feel like I still need to eat, so then this evening I went way high and was 446 at supper. I don't usually go quite that high, but this has been happening for the last 3 weeks or so like this and it is driving me crazy, plus making me very tired with all of the lows and highs. I know this is hard on my body. I'm taking sugars anyway from 4 to 10 times a day lately. Take care . I'll be thinking of you.
