Diabetes has made me much ore carb-conscious than before, especially concerning
the amount of carbs consumed in one sitting. Some high-protein or fatty foods taste too rich for me to enjoy them without carb accompaniments. I'm not one to
have bread at every meal, but I'd happily consume rice every day if it were available, especially with stews and soups, as we had last Saturday when our housemate cooked a delicious Puerto Rican sancocho with ox tails, beef spare ribs, an assortment of typical root vegetables and white rice on the side.
