Lows seemed like a good time to break them out again :) Have recently begun to stow away Clif fruit ropes for lows. Loved Karen's idea about dried fruit!Lisahttp://sweetiepiesinthesky.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9175362385039466640.post-4276382657671080032012-05-31T23:41:02.580-04:002012-05-31T23:41:02.580-04:00Funny you post this today...I brought Adam to an i...Funny you post this today...I brought Adam to an indoor bounce place (read: going to expend A LOT of energy!) and when we got there he was 42 (BEFORE JUMPING!) In my stash I had cookies, glucose tabs, fruit snacks and a Balance bar. Of course my nutty 6 year old DIDN'T WANT ANY OF THAT. He wanted juice. So I had no cash, and I had to beg the cashier to break into the vending machine to get Adam a juice. The times that I DO carry juice with me? He doesn't want it. He wants candy. I can never win, LOL!Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05703099150939801754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9175362385039466640.post-7982118206453966602012-05-31T23:17:52.057-04:002012-05-31T23:17:52.057-04:00I typically carry glucose tabs with me in my car a...I typically carry glucose tabs with me in my car and bag, just in case. Sometimes Skittles. Also, in my car, I carry a pack of PB crackers that has a little more substance in case a Low hits at the start of a drive and I need a little more to get me to the destination.Mike Hoskinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06551066714605052991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9175362385039466640.post-44153639869238919132012-05-31T18:31:36.301-04:002012-05-31T18:31:36.301-04:00I keep the Halloween size skittles in my car, in m...I keep the Halloween size skittles in my car, in my purse, in my husband's car.<br />I really don't like skittles, so I don't od on them if low.<br />Tried juice boxes in my car but it froze the first winter...

But my favorite is an old precription bottle I filled with Bottle Caps. I rewrote on the label Mom's Meds. In my cars I have a baggie of animal crackers. They work better for me than glucose tabs... they just turn into dust in my purse though.Jennifer from Hurricanenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9175362385039466640.post-8099807237826118542012-05-31T15:27:05.576-04:002012-05-31T15:27:05.576-04:00I currently have a peanut butter chocolate chip La...I currently have a peanut butter chocolate chip Larabar, a small box of raisins (not the mini, the one bigger than that), and about 3/4 roll of tropical fruit glucose tabs from Wal-Mart.

I currently have a roll of Starbursts also. At home, I'm trying to get away from junk to treat lows, so I've got a package of dried pineapple slices that are delicious and more healthy than candy for lows. :)Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05853213615426205881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9175362385039466640.post-65390424693267899402012-05-31T13:33:37.190-04:002012-05-31T13:33:37.190-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Scott Ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00259475635753627498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9175362385039466640.post-3898630644942788432012-05-31T13:24:41.820-04:002012-05-31T13:24:41.820-04:00I carry a tube of glucose tabs for true emergencie...I carry a tube of glucose tabs for true emergencies (emergency: when nothing tastier is available to treat a low). Usually also some granola bars and/or Fruit Snacks. That explains why my 5 year old son has developed a habit of asking "Daddy, I'm hungry.
