    Hi David I was wondering how soups go on the sugar scale. I noticed in your book it said to treat with caution? I make my own vegie soup with chickpeas but i do use chicken stock and a can of tin tomatoes, I noticed the sugar content on thoughs two items seamed high should i use something else? Also are cup of soups out too?

    Tracy your soup sounds fine - chick peas are high in sugar but they are also high in fibre, so no need to worry too much - just check the tinned tomatoes to make sure they haven't added sugar (some do) and they should be fine too ... Most commercial soups are fine too, but check the labels, some brands add a lot of sugar.  I am (slowly) putting together a guide to soups.

    Cheers

    David.
