Beware of CarbWatchers Bars!
Beware of CarbWatchers "candy" bars!
I got the praline mocha for my once a week 1 net carb treat, and discovered after eating that it was 1 net carb per serving and the servings are miniscule. In two places the bar says "net 1 carb" in big, bright print, yet on the nutritional panel (black print printed on bronze wrapper that is hard to see), the "3 servings" are listed. The print for this is also much smaller than that on the front caying "Less than 1g Net impact carbs." To make matters worse, the whole bar is the length of 1/4 of a kit kat (sorry) and just a tad bit thicker. And they aren't even all that tasty. Stick with Russel Stover or De-Lite.
So sad . . . I hope I didn't "ruin" my day or ketosis by eating 2 extra grams of net carb (or all the extra malitol). Sigh . . .
