| I am, or should I say WAS a girl scout cookie fanatic. Now is the time for girl scout cookies so I was on the look out. It didn't take long for me to spot a group of eager girl scouts right outside of walmart. This was my last errand run for the day, so I was eager to retrieve my box of samoas asap. They didn't have to come to me I was ready and make a b-line right there. So I made my purchase, 1 box only. That was a surprise for me, but now thinking about it, maybe god sent??? Well I didn't wait to get home, or go to my car for my long awaited treat. I opened my box of samoas asap inside of walmart. I gave one to my daughter, her dad didn't want any (good). So that left me with the rest, and yes, I did ask my daughter if she wanted more, but was not into the coconut too much. My daughter's dad reads labels these days, we both do (another story). So reading along he read the ingredients. He mentioned the word sorbitol, I said, "no way! are you sure"? He handed me the box and there it was. Basically if I'm not mistaken sorbitol is used in sugarless and sugarfree products, right? And that would be the same category as aspartine, phylen(sp) etc. I avoid foods with those ingredients in there and more so diet drinks too. That stuff is awful, and gives me headaches and the after taste is the worst. So after consuming more than half the box, I'm cool and really disappointed at there cheapy alternative, or diet methods? |
