Potato and Sugar Free Menu Tips:


The easiest way to split up your fruit and sugar combination is to completely eliminate one. In your case  eliminating sugar is the best way to to since sugar doesn’t have the nutritional value that fruit does. Our menus are written following this “avoid one” guideline. You will see reminders in the tips to avoid sugar, and to always read labels, as different forms sugar are added to so many foods.

If you’re planning on having sugar, then plan your day accordingly, and avoid fruit for the amount of time you are supposed to. For example, if your hours of separation are 6 hours, and you’re going to a birthday party (with cake) in the evening, then fill up on fruit at breakfast. At lunch, snacks, and dinner avoid fruit, and eat more veggies instead. By the time dessert rolls around you should be safe. Remember fruit can hide in unexpected places, like in most prepared red pasta sauces there is citric acid. Also, you can’t always be sure what is in food from a restaurant, but reading the entrée descriptions should let you know if there is fruit in the dish.
