Grocery store secert

If you are close to Chicago or live here in Chicago, check out Pete's Fresh Market. Lately we found out it is getting pretty much impossible to eat healthy by buying grocery from Dominics and Jewel. We would spend whopping $100 and go home with pretty much nothing. Pete's Fresh Market is as large as Dominics and Jewels and prices are very reasonable. Store is very clean and great fruits and vegetable selection. With diabetes, it is very important to eat healthy and this is possible by shopping at Pete's Fresh Market. If you are not in Chicago, check out your local ethnic grocery store. You may find some great deal.

Nutty truth

Sesame seeds are another great thing for diabetes diet. When you toast sesame seeds, that's when nutty flavor comes out and boy it tastes very yummy. It probably takes 1minute or so to toast them then sprinkle toasted sesame seeds to pretty much everything. I heard sesame seeds slows down sugar absorption during meal. We are pretty much hooked on it.
