Is there some reason why this is the "no sugar added" flavor? I can purchase dozens of flavors at the store (including those old standbys, Chocolate, Strawberry and Vanilla). Now it just so happens that I like Butter Pecan - but I cannot imagine that it's on too many people's lists of favorites. So - I am just curious - why that is the chosen flavor? TIA!

The candy store, on the other hand, has a fine selection of sugar free treats and I am thankful for that.
