I think I had so much that my blood sugar went up. I can’t always tell when that happens, but when I can, it’s a kind of fatigue. I get blah from too much sugar instead of high. This has helped me keep up a good A1C though. Not much incentive to be bad. I should have more dark chocolate, or something that’s mostly nuts.Dare I ask what happened?

I was reading their labels and might steal their ideas Unfortunately I’m one of those people who can’t taste stevia. But I’ve never had a problem with erythritol before. It’s hard to find in a store. Regular dark chocolate coating nuts would work because that makes it mostly fat. Fat is good, it doesn’t raise my blood sugar. I have to avoid sunflower, and maltitol which is in most diet chocolate in a store. I balance my insulin for getting a third to a half of my calories from carb, and I don’t get sugar spikes from small amounts, but I really overdid it.I know they're a little pricier, but have you tried Lily's? They're sweetened with erythritol and stevia, and don't budge my blood sugar at all. I love the salted almond, as the salt really kicks up the flavor.

LILY'S creates no sugar added chocolate for baking and snacking. LILY'S Stevia-sweetened chocolate has all the indulgence you crave, but with a lot fewer calories - using the finest Non-GMO ingredients.lilys.com
Another options is to use unsweetened chocolate, then melt it and mix with stevia or monk fruit. That would be cheaper, and not have the added inulin (fiber) or erythritol that might cause intestinal issues for some people.
Lettuce refuse to eat lettuse!I got 1, but only because I refuse to eat "lettuse" because god only knows what it might be.
White chocolate makes me sick every time I eat it and I have no idea why.0
White chocolate is weird though.
Who doesn't like watermelon?
Dark chocolate > white chocolate.It's like eating hard, sweet crisco.
I don't care on those, both are better than milk chocolate.Dark chocolate > white chocolate.
Swerve is made of erythritol, and I see that at all the regular grocery stores now in the regular baking section. But I'm in the Bay Area, so I can't say how common it might be in other regions.I was reading their labels and might steal their ideas Unfortunately I’m one of those people who can’t taste stevia.
