Default Skinny Cow/Slim Cow

skinny cows, Lee

Our box of fudge bars and bulk Cookies and Cream both say no fat with

sugar
and corn syrup. No splenda or other artificial sweetener.

I pretty much recall that skinny cow is sugar sweetened, while the blue
bunny snacks, are splenda.

I will ask him to look at the grocery tonight or tomorrow and get back

to
you, we don't have any in the house right now, I don't get them very

often,
truth is when we do get them I eat a couple and he eats the rest as I

lose
interest fast enough they would get freezer burnt if it were up to me

to
finish them off. Lee, making note to self... and wondering about here

Have him read the label again. I just dragged my stiff body
downstairs and read the very fine print in good light and did not

see
sucrolose (sucralose?). I did see cellulose twice, fructose corn
syrup and sugar listed. This was the mint sandwiches.

I might be wrong but the ingredients you are reading are in fact

splenda,
I
can reask DH but the splendia is a brand name of the product that

I
think
sucrolose SP that is splendia, like nutrasweet is the brand name

for
aspertaine sp? I might be wrong but don't think so, Lee

The Klondike contain spenda - right?

The Skinny cow do NOT but contain various sugars according to the
label I just looked at, I believe.

I think, UNFORTUNATELY, that they are TERRIFIC (G)

They do not taste artificial from my perspective. Like

Richard,
they
are generally about $5.00 (US) for 6 sandwiches and they are

on
sale
occasionally. Last week, $3.50.

I tried one of the other brands that used, I think, Splenda

and
did
not like them at all, it might have been Klondike??? It did

have
an
aftertaste.

Oh, Costco had an 18 pack (3 packages of 6 items) for around

$9.00
(US) Chocolate and Vanilla

I did not find actual ingredients but may have missed them but

they
do
have nutritional info.

I read several posts about this here, they sound terrific. So

I
checked
'em
out at the local Sobeys the last time I went grocery

shopping,!
Didn't
try
them though - here in Halifax, Nova Scotia, it's nearly $7

for
five
of
them!
I left 'em there and got fudgesicles instead.

So tell the truth folks - are they really worth it? My

husband
really
likes
ice cream sandwiches, so he'd probably like those. But over

$1
each,
yikes!
I might try Costco and see if I can get a better deal

there...
