  • Chocolite bars?

    Anyone had these? They taste sooo good and it says 0 net carbs on the "Chocolate Coconut Almond": 7g carb- 1g fiber-6g sugar alcohols.

    Don't worry, I will not be gorging on these MIL and I only go to Sweet Tweet 1x per month and we get about 5 total, for an occaisional dessert. If any of use pigs out then there won't be any left for the month.

    Just worried it sounds too good to be true...any thoughts?

    p.s. ingredients: sorbitol, dehydrated coconut, oligofructose, almonds, ertythritol, cocoa butter, chocolate liquor, sodium caseinate, calcium carbonate, whey protein concentrate, milk fat, soy lecithin, vanilla, sucralose.

    Re: Chocolite bars?

    The notion that they're 0 carbs is "fuzzy math" in my opinion.

    "oligofructose"... not an ingredient I would want to eat ... fructose = sugar.

    If I wanted a "treat", I would have a less chemical one.

    But that's me.

      oligiofructose is not the same as fructose. It is closer to inulin

      Definitly carb in the thing - because it has ingredients with carb but as treats go once you are on rung three - that kind of bar is quite good. Will not have a very high chance of making your blood sugar go crazy.

        Thanks for the clarification ... I know it's not the same as pure fructose ...

        Glossary Definition: Oligofructose

          Thanks for the feedback Atkinsgal and Liv. They're just for every once in a while. Sometimes I will split a bar with MIL but last night we both decided to have our own lol. Now there is one left for the month

          There are always those lone truffles in the freezer lol...(the ones I never eat)
