Lactitol - Sugar Substitute
This may already be a topic that's been discussed, but I don't see it here.
Yesterday, my supervisor introduced me to products made with a sugar substitute called lactitol. They tasted so good, I ran out and got some Reese's peanut butter cups to sooth my sweet tooth.
Each bag has only about ten minuature pieces and all together that's about 6 carbs. I greedily consumed the entire thing.
Now, the package says that lactitol can produce a laxitive effect. I learned this the hard way. This stuff should be in the pharmaceutical section, not in the candy aisle.
I must admit, it was very mild and is much cheaper than Exlax. Maybe this isn't so bad after all.
