I know you all are discussing Hershe;s chocolate, but I feel I should throw in my .02 cents about malitol. Last night my husband brought home SF chocolate wafer cookies. One serving was six cookies and had 20 carbs but 0 sugar. I ate only 2 cookies because I didn't want to go overboard on carbs. About two hours later I was in the restroom having the same reaction I had last time I took an extra strength laxative. It was so awful.
The cookies contained MALITOL. I know now that this is a huge NO NO for by digestive system. The little cookies were good, I'll say that, but NOT nearly worth the time spent in the restroom and discomfort.....
Eaters beware!!!
I know it doesn't affect some people but unfortunatly, I am not one of you!
