    That REALLY depends on how long after you ate your pudding that you tested, sir.

    Two hours post-prandial (after eating) a non-diabetic's blood glucose (sugar) level would not normally rise above 140 mg/dL (milligrams per deciLiter.)  You SHOULD test two hours after eating to get a reliable reading as your body may still be breaking down the food, before releasing the glucose into your bloodstream.
