Unhappy Candy Question

I have tried the Carbolite Citrus Slices and the Jelly Beans. Both leave a terrible after taste. Is there any hard candy out there that is allowed?

I don't know about the US, but in England you can buy sugar free sweets made for diabetics in chemist's (drug stores).

They taste great but you shouldn't eat more than 25g a day or you'll be rushing to the loo all the time.

Russell Stover and now Hershey's came up with SF chocolate candies...again, warning since they contain sugar alcohols they can cause havoc with your bowels if you eat too many.
