web page I know they contain agave nectar, but it's pretty far down on the list. I eat one every day. Thanks!

At a glance the ingredients are fine but there might be too much solid chocolate and cocoa butter in there - do they give you calories from fats and total calories? Then we can calculate the percentage from fat.

Best,
Heather

They have 190 cals total. 45 calories from fat. Total fat is 5 grams.

Thanks so much for your help on this. They are vegan, so dairy free. I eat them everyday as a snack, so I would so appreciate your opinion.

This should be okay. They're about 25% calories from fat, so safe but not necessarily super safe if you're really in bad shape. If you've been eating them daily and tolerating them, that's a great sign.

Thank you. I'm not tolerating something...cuz I'm in pain. thought maybe this was the cause. Obviously I'm still not doing enough SF before IF I guess. Or too much peanut butter (fat).

Is this okay to eat as a snack without an SF base?
