I don't know if this is the case here but I've seen several closeout sales of "low carb" treats and bars because of newer regulation about labeling and in many cases specifically about fiber type/count and how it's been misused to find "net carbs" by subtracting some fiber. So some products have had to update their labeling and in turn, pushing out the erroneous old labeling.
So just in case you want these for a low carb/keto type diet, maybe just check if that's what's going on here too just so you don't mess up your macro counts. So just a heads up.
My favorite Kirkland/costco protein bars now show like 10 more carbs each because of this. I'm still eating them but not two at a time anymore 🤣.

Except the Kirkland bar nutrition label changed because the ingredients changed!

They didn't really change the recipe, they now need to call out what the ingredients really are, i.e. specifying that a large portion of the "fiber" was actually isomalto-oligosacharrides (IMO) and labels can no longer count this as a fiber
You should also stay away from spreading bad information online. This article is a huge lie. The first premise they espouse is that artificial sweeteners are evil. A premise not found in science. The second premise is the lipid hypothesis which is one of the most laughable ideas to gain popularity...up there with vaccines causing autism.
Research is good. The difference between real research and facebook mom internet research is by viewing page 2 of google and reading source materials. Let's make that a thing!
These are pretty damn tasty. My wife gets these and while I don't need them for losing weight or anything along those lines (i am the guy who can't gain freakin' weight to save his life) I'll still grab em and eat them.
Very good tasting bar. Perfect size, not small not huge.
Kirkland bars had tapioca starch that would spike glucose and kicked me out of keto. I noticed these do too.

No, they used to use Tapioca Fiber and they changed it to IMO.

There's too much irony in your comment to unpack, but I certainly would encourage through review of the science and verifying legitimacy of sources. It'll go a long way in your research. It sounds like you're making a commitment to doing that, and it's great to see. Best of luck.
"In the ingredient list, "dietary fiber from tapioca starch" will now be labeled under its formal ingredient name of "isomalto-oligosaccharides (vegetable source)"
