London doesn't want diabetic people in here

These days, when my parents-in-law were here, I found out that London in a DIABETIC-UNFRIENDLY-CITY! Of course I had never thought about that since Hiro's father, who is diabetic, had a lot of trouble to find decent drinks and food that were sugar-free in London.

I must say I was really annoyed to find out that this city, that is so worried about halal meat, vegetarian meals, vegan options and nut-free and allergy advices doesn't give a damn to the diabetics! Differently from the halal meat-eaters, vegetarians and vegans, diabetics can die if they eat sugar. It's not a religious or ideological issue - it's more serious than that.

And then we went to Nando's at Baker street and surprise! No sweetener. We asked for a cofee that my father-in-law could not drink. And then the waiter told us that there was no sweetener in the whole restaurant. "Drink it with sugar!" he said.

To add insult to injury, he refused to give our money back. After complaining a lot, he gave us a voucher for another coffee. Not very useful, since I don't plan to go back there... But we must go someday, just to spend that voucher. And then put sugar in the coffee.

But if instead of having a health problem, he said that he only eats chicken that is allowed by God to be transformed in food, slaughtered by a guy who says "Allah" to each one of them at the moment of the killing, then then Nando's would have plenty of Halal chickens to offer!

God, where is the diabetic lobby in this city? How many people allergic to nuts live in London, and how many diabetics? I can only conclude that diabetics are not doing their lobby properly.
