Label Watch
“Zero sugar” is a marketing claim, not a nutrition fact.
We put the front of the bag next to the nutrition panel and let the numbers speak. The claim below is not false: US labelling rules let a product declare 0g of sugars while the carbohydrate still lands on the panel. That is exactly what shoppers miss, and why the serving size and total carbohydrate line matter more than the word on the front.
Front of the bag“Zero sugar”
Nutrition panel15g total carbohydrate per serving
What shoppers miss: “zero sugar” is a statement about the sugars line only. The carbohydrate, the sugar alcohol, and the serving size are all still on the panel, and all three change how a candy actually lands.
Sweetener guides
Know your allulose from your maltitol.
Most bad sugar-free experiences trace back to one ingredient the shopper did not recognise. Start with the sweetener that is already on the bag in your hand.
Open the full sweetener guide- MaltitolThe sugar alcohol behind most 'sugar-free' complaints
- ErythritolWidely used, gentler than maltitol, still a sugar alcohol
- AlluloseA rare sugar that behaves differently on the panel
- Monk fruitUsually blended, so read what it is blended with
- SteviaZero-calorie, with an aftertaste people either accept or don't
Why trust Sugar Rebel
“With receipts” has to mean something.
Four commitments that make a claim on this site checkable by you.
A named person reads the label
Shawni Abraham was diagnosed with type 1.5 autoimmune diabetes at 32. She reads the panel herself and signs every review. Lived experience is labelled as lived experience, never as medical advice.
About ShawniA published method, not a vibe
Four separate scores: label clarity, sweetener profile, digestive risk, and candy quality. We do not blend them into one number, because a single score reads as medical suitability and this is a shopping assessment.
Read the methodologyAffiliate links do not buy coverage
We earn a commission when you buy through our Amazon links. That commission does not change a score, remove a watch-out, or move a product onto the shelf.
Editorial policyEvery review carries a date
Formulas change without warning. Each review shows the package version we read, the date we read it, and a stale-evidence warning once the check ages out.
How re-checks workJoin the Rebellion
Get new label breakdowns and formula-change alerts
When we read a new panel, or a candy you already buy quietly changes its sweetener system, you hear about it first.
No spam. No gimmicks. Just sharper picks, clearer labels, and better shopping.
