Tsk, tsk, John. This COULD be very threatening to someone with a peanut allergy, and it's certainly not for us to laugh at, even tongue-in-cheek.

I can easily see that some might depend on jelly beans to bail out of a low, just as some depend on Skittles.  I'm just so grateful that my regimen doesn't cause lows!

I know peanut allergy is serious.

The reason for the joke (You may notice I normally post 'em without any comment at all) is that it's Jelly Belly... I mean what's the holidays without jelly beans by Jelly Belly?

As I say.. Normally I'd not comment at all.  save perhaps for "Today was a busy day" or
"This one is for the dogs" (Pet treats recalled)

But this time it's Jelly Belly after all...

And as one respondent pointed out.. Those are one of the better Hypo cures on the market.

Jelly Belly is 'way at the bottom of my list as far as treats go ... 'cause someone makes a bigger sour cherry candy ... and I surely do not buy them very often.

My preferences for low BGs are Good & Plenty (no fat) and mini Tootsie Rolls (very low fat)

I may be a bit "Spotty" for the next week while I move from where I am to where I will be, once I get to the new park I should be solid for 2 weeks provided the log-in system works (Not so easy to get here today, being worked on I hear)
