Does anyone know if you can get diabeties (spelling?) from eating too much sugar? My grandmother swears that's how my grandfather and his mother got it ....she calls it "sugar diabities" I'm not sure what that means. My grandfather had to take shots and eat a sugar free diet, and his mother was always in the hospital with these sores on her legs and she couldn't have sugar either. So anyway, my grandmother used to have a fit if we ate anything with sugar in it and would swear "If you eat that candy bar you'll end up just like your grandfather!!" OH!!! We weren't allowed to have white bread either.

So ofcurse when I grew up and moved out I cramed (and have been cramming) every bit of sugar and white bread that I can get my hands on!!

BTW that was a great idea for a poll!!
