Russell Stover Sugar Free Chocolate Candy Coated Peanut Gems, 7.5 Ounce Bag

These are a great sugar free alternative for the big named candies of the same shape and size. I ordered another bag for my good bag, just in case I'm stranded on a sailboat without a motor and no wind. One handful of these "gems", and you'll be making your own breezes for a while. I do recommend these...but on a Friday, if you're not working in an office environment on Saturday. Great stuff!! However, your wife or husband will not appreciate the sheet over the head trick!

Remember the chocolate coated M'Ms peanuts? This sugar free variation by Russell Stover is tasty and enjoyable, especially if you're watching the sugar intake. Product does not spike the blood sugar levels, and the chocolate tastes just fine. If you need a healthy substitute, then this product is recommended. A little pricey but the quality is definitely there and easily available on Amazon. Recommended.

As a type 2 diabetic. I love these things. I was a huge Peanut M&Ms fan (which is probably part of the reason I wound up getting type 2 diabetes), and these scratch and itch that I have for a sweet and peanutty treat every once in a while. The chocolate isn't as good as that which Mars puts in their famous candy-coated chocolates, but when you can't have the real thing, it's better than nothing. The candies themselves are of a good size, but the bag is rather small. I wish Russel Stover would sell these in larger quantities. The carbohydrate content on the label is high, but this is due to the use of sugar alcohols, which pass through your system unmetabolized. Once you account for the maltitol, there are only 3 grams of carbs per 1/8c cup serving (not much, a few candies per serving in reality). Are they great? If you have to watch your sugar intake, they certainly seem like it. But they're not the real thing. Nonetheless, they get 5 stars from me as they are one of my favorite sugar-free candies I have found so far.

Okay in a pinch, but if your sweet tooth is calling, go get some M & M's.

The taste just like M&Ms. I love these.

Received in questionable condition. Candy coat was faded with spots, and the most concern was no expiration date was reflected on the package. For was little I tried, it gave me uncomfortable gas.

I’m a diabetic, but I love M&M’s, and this candy is so close to the real thing!

Great taste with Stevia sweetener. Ordered again for long trip.
