Hi there fuze There was an urlier post about this as well - it seems some of the carbolite bars already have the new packaging. It's freaking some people out, as you can well imagine.

Whether their 'Net effective carbs" truly are what they say they are will depend on the individual, just as it did before they made this announcement.



How sugar alcohols effect me and how they effect you differs. Your body may taste them, not know what to do with them, and say "yes, these are carbs.... insulin please" Mine may not. YMMV. If you haven't read Doreen's article "Sugar Alcohols" under "Low Carb Tips", this would be a good time to. Sugar alcohols and glycerine can cause problems for you - anything that tastes sweet can be a trigger, can set off cravings, can cause a rise in insulin.

Caveat Emptor

The fact that you are "fiending" for chocolate is something you should be wary of. Often, it is those foods that we 'cannot live without' that we really should 'live without'.
