As you can see, there are not too many differences in the nutrition label. Small secrets actually pack a little more sodium and a gram more saturated fat. However, what you do not see above is that 23 of the 25 grams of sugar in a twix bar areadded sugarsWhile, in the small bar of secrets, only 22 grams of sugar are added.

Three grams of sugar may not seem like a lot, but when you think about how much you should have in a day, it makes a considerable difference. For example, theAmerican Heart Association Recommends that women have no more than 25 grams of sugar added a day and men do not consume more than 36 grams to maintain good heart health.

The main difference between small-secret milk chocolate with caramel cookie bars is the quality of the ingredients.
