Hi lilj,

 

Eating too many sugar cubes will not kill you. However, it is bad for your teeth!

 

Also, if you do have diabetes you'll want to be careful. You don't want your blood sugars to spike. It's ok to eat one every once in a while but remember to watch you blood glucose levels and adjust your insulin if needed.

 

Of course, fruits and veggies are always a better option Cool
