They do not. lol

I tried them before surgery. And, for being sugar free the calories on a lot of these candies are the same if not more. Drives me nuts. I would rather just learn to eat the real thing while focusing on moderation and self control.

Which is how I prefer to operate myself however he is diabetic so his own journey has its own rules, and it's better for him to avoid sugar altogether. I agree many of the sugar free and low carb convenience foods have far more calories than I'm comfortable with, often no lower than their "conventional" counterparts.

yea, the no sugar part is why I assume most people eat the sugar free. Wise decision, Diabetes is nothing to play with.

If he hasn’t tried the Hershey zero sugar and the twizzlers no sugar they taste just as good to me too. I believe Hershey makes reeces so I bet those two have similar ingredients.
