I agree.
I'd look at the ingredients of anything before considering it edible. If anything in it didn't come from nature, I pass. "Sugar-free" usually means artificial sweeteners (while "no artificial sweeteners" usually means sugar!).
Think whole foods, as nature intended (which I prefer to the term 'clean' foods).
Of course, just because it isn't 'clean' doesn't mean you can't have it as an occasional treat. The important thing is knowing the difference between 'food' and 'treats.'
