I admit I love my mom dearly but my god, she is so DAFT!
the new chinese place that opened up, everything is cooked in a pretty healthy way, but it drives me nuts because my mom keeps mistaking cooked in a healthy way, and appropriate for normal non diabetic people, as appropriate for diabetics. and she keeps insisting there's nothing un healthy about chinese food, and even a diabetic can have sweet and sour, or orange chicken, or any other highly sauced highly sugary, highly starched thing, because the gentleman that runs the store says everything there is cooked in a healthy way.
They can cook it to how you need it in some cases, like no sugar added, and easy on the sauce, and in my case no pineapples, and they do have gigantic heaping plates of veggies, so you don't have to get heavily sugared or sauced. So if I get the right thing, I can actually eat it, but it still bugs me my mom hears cooked in a healthy way and from then on she refuses to hear or listen to anything else.
or this one place panera bread, and i took a look at the nutrition info for panera bread, and everything is way over the carb limit of what I can have. I'm talking they're like 65 and and even sometimes 70 carbs, there's only like what two things that are under 40 carbs, and it's cold brew tea and like one piece of bread, and it's like WHAT ARE YOU KIDDING ME MOM THIS ISN'T APPROPRIATE! and she's like yes huh!
