Hi SBD'ers :) I just tried the Carb Options BBQ sauce & I LOVED it!! I was wondering if anyone knew if the chocolate peanut caramel snack bar is SBD friendly. It looks like it is to me, but I want to make sure I'm not overlooking something. This sounds so yummy!! I love my SF Fudgesicle w/ my Smucker's Natural PB but sometimes I have a taste for a chocolate bar w/ caramel but I have been strong & not reached for a Snicker's bar :)

Thanks!

Edy

Sorry to say, but I doubt that the chocolate bar would be SB-approved. Caramel, which is pretty much just sugar, is the first ingredient, and it also has partially hydrogenated oil which I don't think is allowed, plus the crisp rice made from rice flour is probably not the best choice. Hopefully one of the CL's can double check that and give you a definite answer...but my gut reaction is that it's not a good South Beach option. Hopefully I'm wrong!

Thanks for the info.! I've tried the SBD bars before and they are good, I'll check out the Kashi bars too! I just have a weakness for caramel but I've done well so far :)

I appreciate your help!
