I hear what you're saying, which is one reason I get annoyed with commercial LC products. I mean why can't they make them *without* sugar alcohols! I make stuff at home without sugar alcohols, and it tastes so much *better* than any of the stuff you can buy in the store, so that gives me a double whammy for avoiding prepared foods. But no mainstream food manufacturers seem able to avoid them. Though you can buy awesome chocolate chips at www.carbsmart.com that are sweetened only with sucralose. Why can't more folks do something like that?
