I've read a lot of diabetes cookbooks and find this area very confusing. I don't really see any difference between these specialty diet books and regular cookbooks. Many diabetes books seem to promote pasta, white rice and potatoes which I would think was a no no. Has anyone had a similar reaction?

Depends on what the "Proper" path is for you.
