[QUOTE="pleinster, post: 1499951, member: 221545"] Hi. 11g of carbohydrate for every 20g - look at it this way, the bar is over 50% carbohydrates. Now, I am not saying that once in a while, if your blood sugar is nice and low (and weight isn't much of an issue), you absolutely cannot have one. What I think you should take on board is that anything with high carbs is best avoided (particularly if it is simply for a wee treat). You would be best advised to kill your sweet addiction and have no need for a "fix". It's not unlike asking if one cigarette is okay every now and then for your nicotine fix. I know it's not that easy. For you info though - look at the labels and look for the carbohydrate content per 100g...10g of carbs pr 100g is what might be considered low carb. If it makes you feel better...I certainly go over that from time to time - but 50% carb in a wee bar s a no-no. [/QUOTE]
