Depends on what type of vegetables. Many of the people in this
newsgroup have found that the starchier vegetables must be
limited in quantity in order to be safe for them.

Starches digest into the same types of simple sugars that table
sugar does. The old idea that this always happens slowly enough
that those with diabetes can eat any amount of starches without
problems has been shown to be incorrect by scientific research.
