Subject: RE: BS: No -no foods for diabetics
I agree about calcium intake, although it can also be found in fish with edible bones, like canned salmon etc. I like milk and milk products. I'm not going to give them up. I just have to balance it out with other foods. The amount of milk I have in porridge is minimal.

I discovered a neat little machine which solves my craving for ice cream and increases my intake of fruit.

(Yeah, yeah, I know. Some fruits are full of sugars. Choose the low sugar fruits.)

But you freeze chopped up fruit and put it through this mincer-thingy called a frozen treat maker and it comes out like a really fruity ice cream. Deceptively creamy. I also freeze low-fat, no added sugar yoghurt and add that in to the mix if I want a creamier frozen treat.

It's one of the best kitchen gadgets I've ever had. When I want some sort of ice cream-type treat I break out the frozen fruit and wham! There it is within minutes.

Thanks for the virtue-signalling, DtG. That's just what we need. LOL
