Like many kids, mainstream snacks and cereals were a memorable part of my childhood. There’s nothing I loved more than chocolate puffs for breakfast or a delicious sandwich cookie dunked in a glass of cold milk.
Unfortunately, when I turned 17, I was diagnosed with T1 diabetes and had to give up many of my favorite snacks since they are typically loaded with sugar and empty carbs.
I started eating low carb to help manage my blood sugar, but the few healthy options available tasted like cardboard. I got fed up! I wanted delicious snacks that would satisfy my cravings but weren’t loaded with all the sugar and empty carbs.
