RE: graham crackers, anyone?

[Guest guest]

I remember when my Mom used to put icing on them to make cookies.

[Guest guest]

Oh, yes. The only way I like graham crackers is if they are covered with

chocolate! Therefor I don’t eat them at all!

Don, it's not that you have to eliminate them completely, but you may want

to limit them. IF you normally eat x number of grams of carbohydrate with

breakfast, you can certainly eat a gram cracker, or crackers, totaling the

same amount of carbohydrates. The thing is, you should want to maximize your

nutritional value with every food item you eat as a diabetic.

Non-nutritional foods should be the exception, not the rule. For instance,

instead of gram crackers for breakfast, which if I remember correctly from a

message the other day have only 1 gram of fiber, you ate high fiber bread

made with whole grain, you're doing your diabetes a favor.
