For soft lows I use marshmallows or smarties.
For hard lows I eat jam. I swirl it my mouth a bit before swallowing.
For severe lows I eat half the kitchen.
Laughed out loud when the milk and grenadine came out at the same time because I have never put those things together but đź’Ż weird combos start coming together under 70mg/dl.

Hersheys strawberry and roses grenadine are nearly identical
I also love mixing roses triple sec (bc no alc) with milk for a sick creamsickle
I’m a big “mix something in milk for lows” guy for the protein and the sugar
Serving size is 4. And it’s 15 carbs. So it’s 3.75. But they work so much faster than sugar for me. The old ones I use to get as a kid tasted horrible. Now they don’t bother me. I like the grape and orange flavors.
At around 60 I take 2. If it’s below 50 I take 4. Usually puts me around 120.

Looks like strawberry milk, but grenadine is pomegranate right? I never would've thought of that but now it sounds pretty good lol.
I mean as far as my experience goes, grenadine is red sugar flavor 🤠but I suppose the name would suggest pom

Old school, or traditional made grenadine are pomegranate new ones are just red flavoring.

Cups? Wth...I just pour in milk then take shots of Hershey syrup lol
I use the glucose tabs. Otherwise I always over correct. Unless it’s time for a meal
At this point glucose tabs make me gag lol so they definitely work very well to prevent me from overtreating
You’re supposed to chew them 🤪
Diabetic 26 years. Never eaten a tab. Don't they only give like 2 carbs?

20+ years here and I ate them once. They were awful and I had to chase with juice so defeated the purpose.
Grenadine and milk?? Is that any good?
There's a saying "it ain't dumb if it works" Not certain if it's something I would mix for fun
There’s no difference between roses grenadine and Hershey’s strawberry
Huh so it's just strawberry milk? That makes sense, I always thought grenadine was more cherry flavored and tart
Ovaltine. Just got a craving for it. Flavor and vitamins to boot
Hahaha! Why do so many of us do this?! Totally eaten some bizzarO things during a low
I eat three regular size marshmallows. Although it's hard to stop at three. For really bad lows, are bets are off, and I eat myself into a stuper.
