Kashi Squares Berry Blossoms - When your inner six-year-old wakes up pouting, a breakfast of sweet crunchy cereal could be just what you need. And for your outer grown-up, Kashi's tasty squares are packed with whole grains and real fruit. Each 3/4-cup serving has 100 calories, 1g fat, 125mg sodium, 25g carbs, 5g fiber, 7g sugars, and 2g protein (PointsPlus® value 3*). Everyone wins!

Evol. Teriyaki Chicken Bowl - Frozen-food makers, are you taking notes? Here's how to do it right. This bowl knocks it out of the park -- perfectly cooked brown rice, lots of veggies, grilled chicken, yummy sauce... THAT'S WHAT WE WANT! Each bowl (about 9 oz.) has 250 calories, 6g fat, 490mg sodium, 34g carbs, 4g fiber, 8g sugars, and 14g protein (PointsPlus® value 6*). Find this at select markets. (Fair warning: The other varieties of Evol.'s bowls have higher stats.)

Flatout FOLDit Artisan Flatbread - These foldable flatbreads are delicious, super-convenient, and a GREAT alternative to tortillas and flat buns. (We still love those, though!) In 5 Grain Flax, Rosemary & Olive Oil, and Traditional Country, each flatbread has 100 - 140 calories, 2 - 3g fat, 380 - 420mg sodium, 17 - 24g carbs, 3 - 8g fiber, 1 - 2g sugars, and 7 - 9g protein (PointsPlus® value 3 - 4*). We think they're flatout AWESOME. Click to find or buy online.


How YOU Can Help the Japan Disaster Relief Efforts

Following the massive earthquake and tsunami that devastated parts of Japan, people worldwide are pitching in to help. Food companies such as Kraft, Coca-Cola, McDonald's, Starbucks, and Kellogg have chipped in, and YOU can help out too. How? Grocery stores like Wegmans and Smith's have made it easy -- donate at the register, and they'll add the amount to your bill; contributions go to the Red Cross for food, water, shelter, and other necessary supplies. All Costco locations and most Starbucks stores are collecting donations. And websites we use all the time -- Amazon and iTunes -- have set up quick ways for users to get money to the Red Cross through their existing accounts. Click here for more Official Red Cross Donation Sites. If you can spare even a little bit, do it...

Every Dollar Helps!


Neat... Sweet... Petite!

New at Starbucks: What's Worth It and What's Not...

The "buzziest" new under-200-calorie treats on the market? Starbucks Petites. These li'l portions of decadent treats are just big enough to satisfy a craving for sweets. The Lemon Sweet Square is the lightest (120 calories, 6g fat, and PointsPlus® value 3*) and the Salted Caramel Sweet Square tastes the best (190 calories, 11g fat, PointsPlus® value 6*). The mini Red Velvet Whoopie Pie and assorted Cake Pops are delicious but a tad high in stats for their size. As for sips, the new Cocoa Cappuccino is AMAZING -- a Tall with nonfat milk has 120 calories, 1.5g fat, and a PointsPlus® value of 4*. And the limited-edition Tribute Blend coffee -- which is ALSO available as instant VIA packets -- ROCKS! Good stuff, 'Bucks!
