(Oreo via AP) Rejoice, New Year’s dieters: Oreos are getting a sugar-free option. Mondelez said Tuesday that Oreo Zero Sugar and Oreo Double Stuf Zero Sugar will go on sale in the U.S. in January. They’re a permanent addition to the company’s Oreo lineup. It’s the first time Mondelez has sold sugar-free Oreos in the U.S. They’re already sold in Europe and China, the company said.
Main Idea: Mondelez is adding zero-sugar Oreo cookies to the U.S. market in January as a permanent new option.
Key Points:
Zero-sugar Oreos still use sweeteners and sugar alcohols, so some shoppers may see little health benefit or may have stomach upset.
Mondelez is adding a lower-sugar cookie choice for people who want a sweeter snack with no added sugar, which may help some households cut sugar intake.
