I love olives. But they have such a high sodium content.

Black olives are great tasting without the sodium content. I usually make a small snack of cheese chunks, black olives and pimentos to snack on between meals.

I started a company focusing on this. Granola Gourmet - Energy Bars for Athletes, Diabetics and YOU!

Endorsed by the Director of Diabetes at Cedars Sinai in LA (he is a Type 1). Check them out at www.granolagourmet.com

Any veggies (almost) with ranch dressing.

ooohhh, these look yummy! I am trying to add more stuff to my diet that has flax seeds in it so I am going to try these out!

Whoa, 20-21 carbs per bar is hardly a low carb snack. All that sweetener! Can't see this as a healthy snack for diabetics. It's practically pure sugar--low GI or not.

Mix together chopped nuts, cocoa powder, peanut butter, coconut flakes & flax seeds for a far healthier high fiber, low carb bar at a fraction of the cost.

This sounds great!!! I will definitely have to try it but of course I will modify it like I do every recipe I try. I don't really care for peanut butter but really like almond butter or sesame tahini. Thanks for the great tip!

20-carbs peanutbar is good when our son´s bg goes down (under5 but not under 3 or 4 yet) while he´s running all over yard, that bring bg up slowly enough and give energy to continue running... but low carb diet I don´t think those are not good thing...
there is many "diet bar´s" which are really carbsbombs.... so is "dietschoklad...it´s same carbs than originally and taste is awfull..
These my opinions....
But original sandwich with tomatoslice and little bit cheese on it runs still better than bars but those one-packed bars are easy put in son´s pocket and then he must not come home for eating, he can joy playing and bg is ok, and so I have no extra heart jumpings while he´s playing...=)

I guess it would not be a good idea for him to run around with a tomato sandwich in his pocket!
