I also enjoy my homemade whole wheat pancakes and real maple syrup. I do go easy on the syrup, though. I won’t use the artificial syrups that are available. They’re mostly corn syrup and artificial flavor. The extra cost of the real product is worth it to me.

Talk about corn syrup
Dad's favorite breakfast treat
Place a slice of Wonder White Bread on a plate (had to be Wonder)
Pour Karo Corn Syrup over the slice of bread (had to be Karo)
Then pour Eagle's Condensed Milk over the the bread/syrup (had to be Eagles)
Even as a kid it was TOO SWEET for me

This thread has made me realize how seldom I have walked through the isles of a grocery store over the past decades. I have no idea what’s available for cereal. About a month ago I started eating breakfast for the first time in about 50 years. I am eating fruit, coffee and or some kind of porridge my wife puts in front of me.

A 90 yr old lady I used to know told me she would eat something called milk toast for breakfast. I don’t remember how it was made, but obviously consisted of toast soaked in milk. I don’t know what type of sweetening was used.

I haven’t had even a spoon full of sugar in 30 years. If I get it in my food I cant worry about it.

Corn and Rice carbs torture my blood sugar. Even large amount of oatmeal can add 100+ points. Sigh

Just curious if you've tried apple cider vinegar? It has worked very well for me to lower my blood sugar. Was getting up over 165-170 fasting in the morning, now it rarely gets over 120. Just a thought.
