Baked white potatoes
Honey
Watermelon and
white bread are all above 70 on the index.

Of course there are many many more but this is just an idea

Low glycemic carbs that would also be as good as Yams (sweet potatoes) are:

Brown rice - 55
Banana - 50
Oranges - 43
Apple Juice - 41
Apples - 36 (why it is lower i don't know)
Skim Milk - 32 and
Grapefruit - 25

Hope this helps a bit

LOL...Yeah, cuz you wonder what the full they put in it to add so much sugar to your blood.

I haven't touched white bread in years.

I'll stick to my multi grain and whole wheat.
