Hi Becca,

I spoke with one of our nutriiton faculty members, and she says you are 
best to eat your dessert last. This allows you to start the digestion of 
the more nutritious components of your meal. It also slows the absorption 
of the sugar from your dessert preventing large and rapid changes in your 
blood glucose levels. I enjoyed reading your P.S.
