Jean,

I eat soy, and yes it is soy.

BTW, today I was away from home and I finally found the Z-carb bars you'd
been asking me about.

I tested the Dark Chocolate Macadamia nut. The flavor had that cooling
taste that is typical of sugar alcohols. I thought the chocolate taste was
pretty weak compared to Lindt 70%. The calories are very high-181 for a
small bar. I ate a segment 1/3 the size of the whole bar--about the size of
the portion I eat of the Lindt bars, and did not get the same feeling of
satisfaction I get from the Lindt, instead, I found myself quickly craving
more. I haven't had time to check my blood sugar, but since a piece of dark
chocolate the same size with real sugar doesn't raise my blood sugar
perceptibly either, I don't expect to see anything.

For me, I think I'll just stick with one Lindt. The carbs may be lower with
the Zbar, but the calories are very high and the deep chocolate flavor
seemed weak to me.

Is that soy-y? I forget whether you eschew soy.
