I picked up a box of CarbSmart popsicles (chocolate coated) and after
reading a message here, discovered that the list of ingredients was indeed
different from the ones I'd bought in November.
They tasted much better and had a much less greasy mouthfeel. But, lordy me!
One pop and I'm not fit for human company for the rest of the night.
The first time it happened, I thought the WMD-grade gas attack might have
been due to eating more nuts and hence more fiber, but some testing suggests
it was not.
Has anyone else had this problem with these pops?

I was looking at LC bars last night! :-)
Carb Smart, Atkins Endulge, and another all have 4-6g Sorbitol (Sugar
Alcohol) per 3-oz bar. This could be the source of the problem. :-)
I bought Skinny Cow LC-bars, which have 1g Lactitol per 4-oz bar. The only
flavor they had in stock was Chocolate Peanutbutter, not my fave, but
eddible. :-)

I think you are being too kind. I took one bite and threw the whole
box away.
