My lovely husband bought me a giant sized bag of frozen blueberry for my new addiction. When I looked at the back of the bag I almost fell on the floor. 12g of sugar???? what??? I looked at the old bag of blueberries and it said the same thing. Oh god oh god oh GOD! I've eaten so many of these! I looked at the ingredients to see if they had added stuff to it. But no it just said blueberries. So now I'm thinking, maybe this is just the natural amount of sugar that comes in the blueberries. WHEW!
I mean it still makes me nervous. Because I've been eating these on the regular. I would say maybe a cup a day. Which is a serving size, 12g of sugar. But I had heard that blueberries are low on the glycemic index, as are strawberries. It makes me wonder....you never see the nutritional info of fresh produce. Imagine if they had the sugar content of all fruit on the packaging.
So...are blueberries ok or what? i hope so!

I think you are fine. I remember from doing Atkins that all berries were good.
