So having that can effect sugar levels quite a few hours later rather than the 2 hours? Ugh!
Trying to get my head around things but hubby a son putting things out of my reach and sight so I’m less likely to give into cravings lol

Yeah, Fibre and fat can both slow down the absorption of glucose into the blood stream, which actually isn't necessarily a bad thing, particularly if your levels stay within the 4-7 boundaries. It is better that way than to have a lot of spikes, definitely. This is why a few of us often have cream with things, the fat can make some things a bit more tolerable. It's still something I'm getting my head around myself!

I love Frazzles. They seem to be quite acceptable for me to have with lunch too!

Yesterday I had:
B: Fried egg on wholemeal toast with bacon
L: Hovis wholemeal granary sandwich with laughing cow, ham, and salad cream. Packet of Frazzles, mini cheese portion, and a Skyr yoghurt with pear, apple, and cinnamon flavour.
D: Cajun chicken burger with chips in the pub. Forgot to take my meter with me so I have no idea what happened to my BG, actually slightly annoyed about that.
