I thought I would be good last time I was in the pharmacy and buy a jar of Stute Thick Cut Diabetic Marmalade. I love marmalade ....

4 slices of wholemeal toast, Clover, and a thick spread of the marmalade; cup of coffee ... 8-)

Boy did I pay the price two hours afterwards .....

"It is best to eat less than 25g of sorbitol a day as excess consumption may produce laxative effects. This amounts to 43g of marmalade."

I had half a pot ... :oops: :roll: :lol:
