A Plate of Diabetes

One of my students, who is only 7 years old, has a sarcastic sense of humor. He is so funny. Today, after they finished lunch, they were able to eat the snacks they had brought and made. These kids wanted to try everything, not just one item. Normally, I would not let them have that many sweets, but since it was a special occasion, I let them. As I was bringing this little boy his plate, when he saw me coming, he said, "yea buddy, bring me that plate of diabetes". Even as young as he is, he knew it was not healthy to have that many sweets, but he sure was happy about getting it. Tomorrow, we will have to start a sugar detox. lol I am not a big sweet eater. I would rather have salty or sour. What about you?

There would certainly be a lot of sugar in those items.

I like sweets but I don't eat them, I have to watch my glucose.

@gnatsmom I eat some fruits and berries but no sugar. I eat sugarless chocolate too, I keep my carbs as low as possible.

I would rather satisfy my, occasional, sweet cravings with fruit.

But excessive sweet foods are not good for health.

We were having a Valentine party. We usually don't have that many sweets. All my students got to bake something.
