Hi whiskysmum,
A packet of Skips are 9.1g CHO and the salt and vinegar ones are lovely
Smile
Also, two small tangerines ahould be around 10g.
Asda do a small pack of cherries for Â£1 and they don't seem to affect by BGs at all.

Hope this helps Smile
Cheers,
Anele.

You can have it at any time of the day as well..........................

The last time I had it, I actually upgraded the delight to 'eggs in a bowl'......................6 eggs were used along with the addition of black pepper.......... Embarassed

If I need to be "naughty" and have an urge for salt, a bag of Quavers is around 10gm/1CP Laughing

I tend to have half a biscuit (hob nob or digestive, stuff like that or a small biscuit) usually (and give the other half to my partner!)... but that's only when I'm desperately hungry or something between meals. I try not to snack if I can.

Oh, I have also been known to have a vending machine hot chocolate. They're under 0.5CP - Klix for example! XD
