I stand corrected! I actually did go and check the atkins stuff I have here and none of it has transfats though the SA content can be quite high. The same goes for the Slim Fast bars. I saw on another post that the Atkins stuff had the transfat and hadn't checked for myself yet.

I have a question about SA's. I know of maltitol but not so much of the others. What are they? Is sucralose considered an SA? Are there any 'treats' out there that don't use SAs? Has anyone tried using Stevia? How does that compare?
