Everyone in California thinks that Sees chocolates are wonderful.

 

People in New England...not so much.  Several years ago Sees bought New England's iconic Fannie Farmer chocolates.  Shortly thereafter they got rid of Fannie's shops and brought Sees chocolates around at the holidays in mall cart displays.

 

I guess they figured that if they got rid of FF and only offered Sees then people wouldn't realize just how inferior they were.

@781Florist   I remember Fanny Farmer from when I was young .  We had a store in our downtown area ,  way before malls ,  and it was our families favorite chocolate ,  the chocolate was the Best , very high quality!    When I worked at a Hallmark store a long time ago that was the brand we sold .   At holiday time they would have special offers of fancy packaging.

Here's the nutrition info for the RS sugar-free choc mint:

RS makes an entire collection of choc candies with stevia. That mint is only one of them.

Thanks.  SF doesn't automatically mean keto friendly as there are some alternative sweeteners that are high on then glycemic index.  Maltodextrin and Maltitol are two no-no's and unfortunately a lot of SF treats have them as ingredients. That's why I'm trying to find the actual ingredient list and not just rely on a blurb on their website.  It always makes me a little leery when a comoany won't disclose ingredients.

I'll stick with See's Candies.

I'm the opposite. My in-laws always buy me a box of See's chocolates during the holidays and I regift them. I prefer Russell Stover. Their not inferior to me.

Agreed. I can't even eat See's chocolate. 

European chocolate is far superior to USA chocolates in general.  Ours is cheap and waxy so it won't melt.  Most European chocolate will melt--like the cookies we buy during the holidays.

I was buying the SF ones for awhile, if I remember correctly the one with the least amount of fat is the Dark Choc Coconut, tasted like Mounds

I agree, no ingredients disclosed, means no sale, this for food as well as cosmetics and skin care.
