Families with type 1 diabetes reported foods such as pizza, pasta and rice as problematic and used strategies such as increasing the insulin dose to minimise their glycaemic impact. CGM contributed to the awareness of problematic foods. Clinicians should discuss these foods and, if challenging, provide targeted strategies including adjusting the insulin dose and delivery pattern to improve postprandial glycaemia.
