Anonymous question submitted:
I recently bought some Sainsbury's "No Added Sugar" milk chocolate, hoping that this would assist me in controlling my type 2 diabetes and in lowering my calorie consumption. On checking the nutritional information I ws shocked to see that the bar contained more calories than a normal Cadbury's bar. This seems to be because it has significantly more fat. This product would therefore actually be more harmful to a diabetic than a normal bar of chocolate and seems to be a pointless product, unless perhaps as a laxative. I have raised this with Sainsbury, but would very much welcome your advice and views.
