I find my little finger, on the side, is the best spot. And it's quite a juicy spot too.

I had a weird experience I'm still puzzled about. I read that allulose can lower your blood sugar if you take some with a meal. It's a study. Anyway, I was making cranberry chutney with allulose and tasting it to try to get it balanced with sweetener and vinegar and all my spices. Then I went to TJ's and figured... "Eh, I'm still in getting my target mode until after the holiday, so why not eat that little bag of English toffee?" So yup, down the gullet. I went home and set a timer for 60 minutes to see what this little bag (with a couple of servings of toffee) would do to my BG. Unbelievably, it tested at 126. WHAT?!? The other day I had a 1x1 inch square of chocolate and it went to 140.

So, since my little digression, I've been testing and yeah, my BG is standing higher than normal, but wow... only 126? How the hell did that happen? Was it the allulose?
