The OFFICIAL New Product Find/Review Thread . . . .

any takers?

Today while out on my lunch break, I found Fiber One Oats and Chocolate granola bars. They come out to 2 points per bar- 140 cal. 4 fat. 9 fiber. These are the most DELICIOUS granola bar I have had, IMO EVER. They are about 3 and change for a box of 5, so a way better deal and better bar than WW 2 point bars.

Another item I tried that is not WW friendly per say is Snyder's Hot Wing flavored pretzel pieces. They are 3 points for 1/3 of a cup. It is really a very decent amount and they are VERY delicious. Definitely kills a craving for hot wings. AND if you are crazy like me and eat them one piece at a time and suck the flavor off first, they take some time to eat and are IMO very satisfying.

I finally found VITALICIOUS Vitamuffins in Stop and Shop in the organic foods section in the refrigerated part. I bought the mini deep chocolate ones. They were on sale this week, so they might not be so easy to find. They are also carrying the Muffin tops now. Both the mini muffins and the tops are 1 point a piece and are very filling and are a delcious way to kill a chocolate craving.

I actually want to clarify that by "cup", I meant the 4 oz cup that it comes in. It's still worth it though!!Chat Icon

I just tried the Vitamuffins in the berry apple for breakfast - great with a cup of coffee and I'm not hungry for anything else yet (almost 3 hours later!) I don't think that there are too many 1 point breakfasts out there!

Hershey's Sticks - they come in milk chocolate, mint chocolate, dark chocolate, and caramel chocolate. Only 60 calories/stick.
It's good if you want to satisfy your sweet tooth for only 1 pt.

Re: The OFFICIAL New Product Find/Review Thread . . . .

I tried the Laughing Cow Baguette snack packs today. They rock! I had not tried them because

1) They were supposedly 2 points, but according to the info on the box, they are 1 point. 2) I thought it would taste just like laughing cow light with pretzels and figured I could do that myself.

I bought them on sale, 2 for $5 at Stop and Shop today and they are really very delicious and the taste of the cheese is different than the laughing cow light wedges- creamier.

I also saw them at BJs yesterday in a pack of 3 for 6.99 . . .

I bought these and they are tasty but soooo little.

I like the jello sugar free puddings especially dulce leche flavored (or maybe it was called creme brulee). 1 point. Yum!!!!!!!

Also the Klondike ice cream snadwiches. They were cheaper than Laughing cow and IMO much better. Same 2 points.
