Hi Donna,

I'm sure it would be okay to have one from time to time. Just be a bit wary of the maltitol. It's a sugar alcohol, and they can cause stalls in some people. They can also have a nasty laxative effect. The only way to find out whether or not they'll affect you is to try 'em.

For more info on sugar alcohols, have a look at Doreen's excellent article in "Low Carb Tips" on the orange bar at the top of the screen.

Cheers, matey.
