Hi All,

Has anyone tasted this CarbSlim bites candy? I got to try it yesterday, it taste sooooooo good and can you believe it's 0 carb!!
It is on sale in most GNC stores and maybe some other stores that I am not aware of. Bottom line is it tastes great and it's 0 carb! If you don't believe me, go buy one yourself. CarbSlim come in two flavors, Chocolate Caramel and Peanut Butter cruch. This product entered LC market just a month ago.

Which flavor did you try? I can't have the Peanut Butter one (allergy) but I just tried the Chocolate Caramel (also bought at GNC) and it really is good! I wonder how they can do that??? HMMMMMMM :D

No candy is truly zero carbs. It might be zero net effective carbs, depending on which plan you are on (some deduct sugar alcohols like they deduct fiber) and how sensitive you are to these carbohydrates.

Hi DerBlumers,
I tried the Chocolate Caramel cruch, too. It is really good, isn't it! Glad you like it

CarbSlim is sweetened with erythritol and splenda. You are right, the net effective carbs is 0. And it doesn't have maltitol(no digestive upset) like other low carb candies do. It tastes great!
