Hershey's goes low carb

[lalakers143]

I bought these last week b/c they were on sale at my local Walgreens drugstore...and all I can say is YUCK! this is "Mockolate" at it's worst...it's not creamy-it crumbles in your mouth... and it's too small and it still has 1 gram of sugar carb...

Yup I saw these in the gas station by my house. I was going to buy 1 until I looked at the label closely. Only 1 gram of sugar but 9 grams of sugar alcohols.

I think I'll just stick to my clouds. Or maybe try a chocolate version using unsweetened cocoa powder.

Well, I tried one, and I have to say--a little too sweet for me! However, I liked that they used erythritol--pretty much no effect on blood sugar, and does NOT have the laxative effect that most of the others--maltitol, especially--have on the body.

I prefer the wafer-based chocolate candy bars. They're nicely crunchy, and tend to have far less sugar alcohols than the pure chocolate bars.

Whoops. I see the link was already posted. I tried these last night and thought they tasted good.
