My nephews like it when I send candy, but it feels better to give them something that’s as healthful as it is tasty, likeMilkita lollipops from Unican. Available in four flavors- chocolate, strawberry, melon and original milk - each is made with 38% milk and contains 6% of the recommended daily allowance of calcium. Three lollipops are the equivalent of one 8-oz. glass of whole milk. The low-fat, 12-calorie pops contain one-third less sugar (1.2 g. per serving) than competitors. They also feature a mascot, Kody the cow, on the wrapper.Milkita fans can create their own characters, play games, download wallpaper and send e-cards on the company’s interactive Web site.
