How does steak kidney pudding effect people ?

I haven't tried it as I don't like kidney but some people avoid it due to the casing/pastry - try it and see as it may have a different effect on you than it does on other people x

I've not had it for years but I'm going to give it a go see wat happens !
 
Not seen them around my area for years to try one, if lucky the fat content may slow your intake of the carbs down enough not to cause to big a problem, with some can cause high spikes.
 
I think I might have had whilst eating out so it would come with stuff I would not have at home.
When we have meat pie I have it with just vegetables.

Yea Im just having vegetables although im desperate for some new potatoes with it ))-;
 
I don't find suet pastry any easier to cope with than any other sort of pastry frankly - carbs is carbs, Plus anything with pastry as a main course always equates in my head as 'stodge' which is always 'best avoided' from a putting on weight POV. The contents thereof however, may well be a different matter, though I like my gravy around and/or over it thickened - so that's 'stodge' too!

But the steak and the kidney - I'll happily eat either or both.

Please don't make me feel guilty I really need comfort food today .. haha !! And I am having lots of healthy veg with it ! (-:
 
I had one a few weeks ago. Did spike me but not seriously (not as bad as a pie) & as it was homemade, it was HUGE!
 
Well you asked not me! LOL The post is simply the truth, not something I've thought up to make anyone feel guilty. And, please note Lisa - I know very well I shall be having trifle soon at a family party and I always suffer for it in terms of BG. But since I most certainly don't get offered it more than say twice a year maximum - I'm blowed if a) I'll give it up or b) not enjoy eating it!

Haha I enjoyed my pudding maybe I'll suffer but hey ho once in a while won't hurt .. and trifle is just to tempting!!!
 
If out I would have pie, crumble, sponge, or ice cream dessert. I normal eat fruit or fruit with Greek yogurt ( dessert spoonful)with lunch or tea. Though the other week I tried berries and Greek yogurt for breakfast but though ok for blood levels I was hungry well before lunch. As I have spent the last 3 years eating egg or bacon, with Burgeon or thins and not usually needing anything else till lunch. I won't be doing that again.

I've never tryed Greek yogurt will have to give it ago !
 
Oh it's lovely - really thick creamy yoghurt. You always feel like you've eaten something even if you just have a small dollop on top of eg strawberries or rasps or blueberries (specially good with rasps I think as I like them better than strawbs anyway) whereas a 'normal' yog can feel quite insubstantial sometimes.

If you take a spoonful and think oh that's a bit tart - have another spoonful - the slight tartness disappears as you eat a bit more. Some people don't get that taste anyway.
 
I don't know, not had one since diagnosis, but it's usually weight gain that would stop me, not the D. I want one now with new potatoes and garden peas with mayo. All no no's. Agh. Sucks. :(

If you have one let us know what happens. 🙂
