Message: <blockquote data-quote="viviennem" data-source="post: 345182" data-attributes="member: 31282">I eat the Atkins Day break bars - Chocolate Crisp flavour - and the ingredients for them are on the back of the  packet, tucked in under the fold of the seal in very small print. The chocolate bar's list may be in the same place.I keep them for emergencies, because they are very expensive, and because they have things in them eg maltitol which can cause you to run to the loo if you eat too many!  :shock:  But they're handy for breakfast or lunch, if I'm pushed for time.The sweeteners are maltitol and sucralose, in the Day Break bars. Have you tried very dark chocolate? For example, Tesco Swiss 85% plain chocolate has 18.2g of carb per 100g. Two squares (20g) have 3.6g carb. Green & Black's 85% is similar, and organic. Sweetener is just "sugar".Just a thought!  <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" />  though a whole bar will have a similar "to the loo" effect!Viv  8)</blockquote>
