I have a diabetic son who is insulin dependant and he longs for a sugar free, Easter Egg. I have looked everywhere for eggs but to no avail. The Macro ones that Woolies sell have very little difference to normal eggs in as much as the carb count is really high.Any suggestions?

I am a type 1 diabetic and I don't look at the sugar, I look at the carb content and adjust my insulin accordingly...this works very well. 1 unit of novorapid to 1 cp( carb portion 10g ). If you ask your diabetes dietician or Dr about the DAFNE course, this is great for diabetics. It stands for dose adjustment for normal eating. It means you look at thecarbs and not the sugar, so buy your son a normal easter egg!! Hope this helps, any questions ph Nikki on 094267892, happy to help!!
