Hi, Jim - the more I read labels, the more I'm convinced that Diabetic
anything is generally to be avoided. I happen to be one of the 50% or so of
people who use some sugar alcohols like they were sugar, so they're no good
for me. Fructose is not a good idea anyway. And low fat stuff is generally
made that way by stuffing it with carbs - and fast carbs, at that. I'd
rather eat normal stuff, in quantities dictated by my meter.

Nicky.
