Yah, Right.


I want to eat popcorn. I'm not supposed to, right?

I googled "popcorn" and "diabetes and found this page, which seems to say that it's good for me.... In that case, extra butter and salt!

That's a neat trick! Now I am going to google "pizza" and "diabetes".... somebody out there is going to say that pizza lowers glucose levels in the blood....
Next: liqueur-soaked cake with fruit covered with a sugary puree.....

My dad became diabetic in his adult years, and he drank a crapload of red wine. And by "crapload," I mean 15+ units of alcohol a day, all day, every day. You'd think that quantity of sugar would be bad for blood sugar, but I think somehow the alcohol distracts the organs that process the sugar, so it didn't elevate his blood sugar so much.

Disclaimer: I do not recommend being the alcoholic variety of diabetic. It tends to lead to an early death.
