I think the problem is that it has to be made fresh.

This group is pretty low volume.
These guys are much more verbose:

They are Paleo, so not targeted directly at
Diabetics, but a lot of Diabetics are Paloe,
such as myself. It gets you to drug free pretty
quickly.
Here is a famous drug free Diabetic Paleo:
Diabetes Management from a Paleolithic Perspective

Here is his before and after:

If drugs and carbs are the route you have decided
to go, the American Diabetes Association has
a lively cooking group, but they are way, way too high
carb for me -- I'd start losing body parts!
I love your recipe. Maybe I will try Trader Joe's
Brats again. Stopped last year as the meat tasted
a bit off (rancid) to me. We have a local sausage
factory that does the fresh, but they cram them full
of chemicals -- MSG, Nitrates, etc.. (Paleo's go for
home grown, local grown, organic, and/or as natural
as you can get it without obsessing on it.)
Welcome to the group. Maybe I will see you on the
Paleo groups as well. Let me know if you need to know
the herbs for T2, I have a list. Won't help you
though, if you are not low carb.

Funny story: I washed my Brussels sprouts frying them.
They exploded all over my kitchen! You live and learn!
(You also grab a lid really quickly.)
