this bread is not expensive...but given that it has only 2 grams of fiber
per slice and 13 net grams of carbs, why exactly is this supposed to have
little affect on BG for a diabetic? Small amounts? With stuff like dates
and raisins and so little fiber and not fat, this *seems* like a
questionable choice to me. I'll probaby try it just to be sure, though.
Frankly, one slice of bread hardly seems worth the bother and 3 slices (one
per meal) seems like a lot of carbs just from bread.
