I mean, the vast majority of menu items are carbs, cheese, and protein. There's really hardly veggies in there at all. A nominal amount of shredded lettuce is really nothing compared to fruit and a salad.
As a diabetic I have to watch what I eat but I still enjoy fried shit on occasion but I can't do rice at all. God I miss rice. I honestly don't know why there are no fast food places that offer diabetic friendly meals.
Nobody offers the low carb high fiber tortillas. Or low carb high fiber bread. Grilled veggies like zucchini and onions with sausage. Even snack places. There are some good low sugar deserts that could be made and ready to sell.
I swear if it's not carbs its fats and sodium. One of these will do me in. I've never understood healthy fat vs non healthy and can't identify it on labels plus cholesterol
My main mid afternoon snacks when I'm hungry is either beef jerky which is expensive as fuck so I really limit that. Peanuts or cheese. Cheese isn't usually filling though.
I've been diagnosed for about 5 years sometimes I do fine. But winter is when I crave carbs the most. I don't check my sugars often and I've never really looked into correct diet. Because I also have a family to feed and making shit just for my self seems to triple the budget
Man I'm sorry to hear. You're already diabetic so I mean carbs are out...but I mean I feel like fats and sodium aren't going to be as much of a worry until you also have high cholesterol and high blood pressure. Altho once you do then you're fucked I guess. Can't enjoy anything anymore. I've heard of salt substitutes, but I don't know much about them.
