Default Curry Wrap--diabetic friendly

Speaking of tamarind, a flavor I love, I used to buy the seed pods at the
store, break them open and suck on the seeds and the sweet fiber. I always
assumed they were pretty heavy in sugar.

One thing...those tamarind seeds have an amazing glass-like quality to them,
unlike any seeds I've ever seen.

This sounds yummy. I'll have to give it a try.
The idea for chutney makes good sense. Way easier than making it from
scratch.
I'll have to take a shot at a diabetic-friendly version of tamarind
chutney as well.
