Maltitol..you devil
First of all, these are tasty root beer candies. You will eat one and immediately reach for another. This is a problem because... Maltitol. You will see it in the ingredients if you look closely. It is a sugar substitute aka sugar alcohol and cannot be digested by your tummy. Your body will set forth a process to get it out. If you have 2 or 3 candies you'll probably be ok. More than that will result in epic flatulence like you've never experienced before. Half a bag? Be prepared to spend a lot of time on the toilet. Bring a book and a bottle of Gatorade. Other candies not containing Maltitol are available and while containing sugar alcohol do not affect me to this degree (SF Lifesavers Mints for example). I still have 9 more bags of these so they may constitute a lifetime supply unless I want to make a funny hidden camera video of strangers reactions to my noises.
