a. Other tangy candies
Sour patch
kids have tons of very unhealthy dyes and colors. Smarties are fake sweetarts. Laffy Taffy doesn't
even count. And nobodies ever heard of Tangy Zangies before. Even as I was writing this, my
grammar checker didn’t think that was a word.
b. Chocolate
- The downsides of Nestlé,
mars, and Hershey's chocolates can really linger. Each "fun size"
bar provides
300 calories and fourteen grams of fat. And you'll get 8.5 grams of
sugar from the crunchy yet sticky center, which is also likely to get stuck in your teeth. These companies committed to removing all artificial colors and flavorings from their chocolate products by the end of 2015, and apparently they're not big on keeping promises. The
bars contain a list of artificial ingredients, such as TBHQ and citric acid. But the worst is yet to come, more than 40% of all chocolate these big guru's use is harvested with forced child labor in the ivory coast. SweeTarts use absolutely 0 slavery in their production.
c. Everything else
Gummies are lots worse than sweetarts, and
don't release nearly as many healthy chemicals. In fact, when asked about it,
88% of respondents said that SweeTarts were the most enjoyable and tasty candies there were.
