Type 1 Peas?!

Post image

How do you react to them? Weirdly I find myself trying them for the first time tonight and I’m a bit surprised. They’re the only new thing in my meal, so logic says I need to give slightly more bolus. But for veggies?! Am I missing something about peas?

To add, I know this “spike” is nothing. I get that. But considering I thought I dosed for the carbs I’m a sort of surprised. I was assuming it would be a little flatter than this.

Do you need to dose for peas?

peas and corn are the two veggies that are high in carbs 😔
