Sugar free Peeps are in the news... see stories here
http://www.startribune.com/404/story/1015862.html
where the article reads in part
Not disturbing because sugar-free Peeps are sort of a crime
against nature, though they are, but because they consist
largely of maltitol, isomalt, polyglycitol syrup and sorbitol
-- "sugar alcohols" required to carry a warning that excess
consumption may have a laxative effect.
Mr. Tidbit doesn't want to know how close
to "excess" for a small child the package's three-Peep
(28-gram) serving comes. Nor does he think you should find out the hard
way.
