Sweet Thinking: Why You Should Eat SmartSweets

In today's world, many foods have unpronounceable ingredients. As much as chemical compounds whet my appetite, I prefer to know what I put into my body. It seems almost wishful thinking to believe a food company wants transparent communications with customers. SmartSweet is not wishful thinking; it's sweet thinking. The company is known for its delicious low-sugar products. I spoke with Maddie, Customer Experience Coordinator, to learn more about SmartSweets.

1. What makes SmartSweets different from others companies?

Our pinky promise has always been- the delicious candy you know and love with no artificial sweeteners, added sugar, or sugar alcohols. Our Founder Tara started SmartSweets when she was 21 years old and recognized she wanted to change her relationship with candy, sparking her quest to kick the excess sugar out of candy - Kick Sugar, Keep Candy.
