Journal TechnoLust's Journal: Since when does 0 calorie != low calorie 8
I love sour things. WAY more than I love sweet things. Most "sour candies" are sweet candies with a light dusting of citric acid. So you get the initial "WOW that's sour" followed by sickly sweetness. Blah. So I tried these Sugar Free Ice Breakers Sours. They are sour through and through. If you can't handle it, there's no crunching it to get to the sweet, oh no! If you crunch it they get WORSE! I can help but crunch them. BRING ON THE SOUR, BITCHES! Anyway, I'm looking at the front and it says, "Not a low calorie food." I immediately flipped the box over to see how many calories they have since I've eaten about 20 of them today. 0 Calories. Umm... last I checked 0 was a low as you could go in the calorie department, so why the disclaimer on the front?
The ingredients are SORBITOL, MALIC ACID, and TARTARIC ACID. Then less than 2% of MALITOL, MALTODEXTRIN, ASPARTAME, Citric Acid, Medium Chain Triglycerides, etc, so maybe it's the word FOOD they are afraid of.
