A diabetes discovery journey ...
Lesson learned: "gluten-free" is not synonymous with "diabetes friendly" - my blood sugar was 100 points higher (mg/dl). So then I read the label on the box and discovered that rice flour and potato starch were the primary ingredients, both diabetic No-Nos when not consumed in moderation. In fact, this experience reinforces (again) an apparent diabetes rule of thumb: processed grains in general, but flours in particular, are not diabetes friendly! 
Interestingly, this fat/sugar overload (relative to diabetes) was not as influential to immediate blood sugar increase as was the box of crackers (more commentary on grains).

Well it must be good if you are eating pea salad at four in the morning! Tomatoes and peas go great together. I think I will add them to my salad too... But I will need to put some back without tomatoes for George, though. He's not fond of them. 
At the very least we should have to get up, move to the container, get a few pieces, sit down and eat it before doing the process all over again. Exercise! 
Remove from oven and cool to room temperature, A diabetes discovery journey ... However ... cooking also matters (relative to digestion rate): 
(It's Autumn here) We don't have Thomas's muffins here but surely I will be able to find something close enough. (fingers crossed) About food enzymes ... Re: Food enzymes ... Ingredients:
