I think most of us know this but nothing like seeing it for yourself...

So, I always used to have cereal for breakfast, typically crunchy nut cornflakes, absolutely love them. Massive sugar spike after breakfast and a quick drop off to the point of a hypo. Had nothing until lunch. Had a bacon and egg bap (admittedly used a brioche roll) slathered in brown sauce. Bacon was the smoked medallions with virtually no fat, dog was having dribble control issues whilst cooking. Check that out for the graph after.

The spike after breakfast is the usual and just finishing the cereal box off. Will be going over to bacon and eggs in the morning but not in a bun. Will also vary with other foods too.

Appreciate a lot of you already know all this but I found it interesting when you see things for yourself.
