Do any Detour Bars contain Maltitol?
Our Detour White Chocolate Peanut Butter, Lower Sugar Caramel Peanut, Lower Sugar Peanut Butter, and Peanut Butter and Jelly bars contain small amounts of Maltitol in their coatings and layers. It is unlikely the small amount of Maltitol contained in these Detour bars will cause any stomach distress in healthy individuals. In fact, one clinical study has showed that both regular and occasional consumption of Maltitol showed no difference on severe digestive symptoms when compared to regular table sugar (sucrose).
