Well, my balloon just popped for the day. You're right, I just checked the label (fudge bars) and it does have corn syrup as one of the main ingredients. I cannot believe I missed that! I guess I was so busy jumping for joy in the middle of the grocery aisle, holding a box that to me said "3 grams of carbs and made with Splenda", that I overlooked the ingredients.

Also, I called my friend and she checked the label on her vanilla coated-chocolate covered bars. It says on the label that one of the chocolate coating ingredients is sugar! How do they get away with such deceptive advertising?

There's always a catch!
