Sugar-free candies are good for you


We all love candies and everyone has their own favorite.

Some love the sugar candies, while others love the sugar-free candies.

This post is for those who like OR dislike sugar-free candies.

Read on, to know more about sugar free candies so that you can make a definite choice next time you buy them from a bulk candy store.

  • Fewer carbs and calories
If you feel you are putting on weight unnecessary, avoid regular candies so that you don't blame them for it. Arguably, the difference in calories and carbohydrates count isn't too much, but still avoid it and instead opt for sugar-free candies.
  • Sugar alcohol
Sugar-free candies use sugar alcohol, which helps in reducing carbohydrates and calories. People use sugar alcohol in their food, but are ignorant of the fact that it has negative side effects such as diarrhea and bloating. Excess of sugar alcohol can be harmful. Remember this if you opt for other sugar-free items too.
  • Sugar-free is not equal to fat free
People buy sugar-free chocolate candies and sugar-free gums (5 gum), thinking that it will help them reduce their tummy size and will look slimmer than ever. This is a myth that you are burning a lot of fat as you consume more of sugar-free items. If you have diabetes, heart disease or are overweight, you need to take care of your fat intake. With sugar-free candies, do not assume that your fat intake is in control.
  • Craving for more sweet
When people continue to eat sweet things, it leads to more and more craving for sweet items. Sugar-free candies are a tiny little way to get off that craving and make for a healthy habit. However, anything in excess (noted earlier) is not good for health.
  • Taste
This has to be on one's personal side. Log on to a bulk candy store online and you will see most of the sugar candies on display. This can confirm that the masses still love sugar candies. However, for chewing gums, sugar-free gums like 5 gum are in demand.

So, think over it and decide for your side.

What's on your mind when you buy bubble gum?


Do you like to enjoy the taste of your favorite bubble gum?
Yes, you surely like it, but what happens when others don't like it when you are enjoying a bubble gum.

Usually, we buy bubble gum, enjoy the taste and spit it out. We have no other thought in our minds.
Do we think about bubble gum etiquette?
Oh, don't think there is nothing like bubble gum etiquette. There is !

Give the examples (below) a thought before you buy bubble gum.

1. Imagine you are walking on the road happy, thanking the lord for a wonderful day. Accidentally, you step on a gum which someone had spit on the side of the road. Will you think, It's okay. It happens. No! The first thing that will come in your mind is, Who the hell has spit it on the side of the road?
Isn't it?

2. You are waiting for an important meeting to start, preparing for a speech. The guy sitting next to you starts enjoying his bubble gum. Blows it and boom. Again, blows it and boom. You get irritated and politely ask him to not to do it. He says okay but the next minute, blows it and boom. At that moment, you will not buy bubble gum and start competing with him, instead will look for a better place to sit and concentrate on your speech, right?

3. You are having a great day at work. However, there is someone who is happier than you and wants everyone to notice his happiness. So, he takes out a double mint gum and goes on a personal communication mode with others. You are the first one, but do not appreciate the strong essence of mint while working. Imagine, he is talking to you from a 'not so close distance' but that strong essence of double mint is still hitting your nose. What can you do? Maybe move out and talk to him later, right? So, don't let anyone feel annoyed because you buy bubble gum and are trying to enjoy the taste.

So, the next time you buy bubble gum from an on-line candy store, make sure you follow the bubble gum etiquettes.
