    Oh my word 58g carbs per portion! Who on earth would even think of putting potatoes onto a pizza?!!! Oh, yes of course an organisation for diabetics! If this wasn't so sick it would be funny. No wonder people get confused. affraid

    If I hadn't seen it, I wouldn't have believed it. Not even as a student did I make anything as disgusting as a potato pizza, and to find it on a diabetes charity web site is totally horrifying. What on this earth are they trying to do to people? (Don't answer, we don't want to hear from their lawyers.)
    I suppose the nutrition is in the sprig of rosemary.
    Yours, deeply shocked, going for a lie down,

    lol, but that makes it even worse! They couldn't have made a worse pizza if they tried! Oh wait - they could have sprinkled it with low GI sugar. Rolling Eyes

    No, no, Avocado, it's not just the cake that's missing, surely pizza should be served with chips!

    @graham64 lol there's a few OK things on that list, but not very many!  It would be funny if it wasn't so sad.  Evil or Very Mad

    edit: Then on the same page they have the nerve to ask for donations! Twisted Evil

    Boys and girls, stop panicking, it's all explained here,

    "The myth that people with diabetes should not eat any sugar still persists ……… good blood glucose control can still be achieved when sugar and sugar-containing foods are eaten."

    And where is "here"? Our very own national diabetes charity web site,

    Phew! Thanks for that Sally. Silly me, I thought sugar was 'bad' for everyone not just us diabetics.

    Seriously though, what is the world coming to when an organisation set up to help diabetics gives such dreadful advice?

    Eddie's having a break right now, so I'll say it for him "Follow the money"

    DUK are in my opinion a complete and utter disgrace. Catering only for the carb and medication addicted and their big pharma pay masters. The pay masters who would run for the hills should DUK ever promote a low carb diet.

    Some of the outfits that keep the diet of slow death going.

    DUK The diabetes charity.

    On Dr Kendrick's latest blog, there is a comment from "Maria", recalling a German saying,

    "a doctor needs to keep his patient just between life and death"

    I suspect that applies to "health" charities as well.

    Dundee cake and mince pies not on your list I'll bet  Laughing

    If they need donations they should ask their big pharma corporate sponsors for more, DUK after all promote a diet that ensures bumper profits for them.
