I must retract something I said earlier about the Hershey's sugar free peanut butter cups.

They do have the warning on the back of the package that says the same thing as the Russell Stover's version. It was so small I missed it. The primary sweetner in the Hershey's sugar free candies is Lactitol, and sucralose is listed in the ingredients, although it is the very last thing listed, so they use very little of it.

In Russell Stover's version, they use maltitol as their sugar substitute.

Since the "laxative effect" didn't hit until yesterday (nearly two days after eating the Russell Stover's peanut butter cups), I could presume it was the Hershey's sugar free PB cups afterall, since I ate those more recently.

Only way to find out for sure will be to experiment on one of my weekends.

Yeah, that should be real fun.
