BLAMBKY Posted June 5, 2015 #1 Share Posted June 5, 2015 (edited) (Type 1 diabetic) Who would I ask to get the carb information on MDR menu items? Would I ask the head waiter? Maître d? My husband has been using an online app on his phone but that will not be available on the ship? I started thinking about it and there must be a way to get this information.

mutzy Posted June 5, 2015 #2 Share Posted June 5, 2015 I was on two cruises in april and was not able to get any carb information. when I felt I couldn't meet the carbs I needed I would ask my waiter for a side of potatoes. every meal wasn't perfect but I was able to keep my blood sugars fairly stable the whole trip.

Wow, thanks for letting me know. This surprises me, since each plate is proportioned, I thought for sure it would be necessary to find out who to ask.

MandD Posted June 6, 2015 #4 Share Posted June 6, 2015 Don't know if you can get that info, but the first person to ask would be one of the headwaiters. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freakymickey Posted June 6, 2015 #5 Share Posted June 6, 2015 My experience on our last cruise with our Type 1 DD, we were NOT able to get any carb information. We carried the Calorie King book with us, for the most part, she would eat the same foods so we were comfortable knowing the average carb count for most items Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
