<br>Hungry Girl Today: 6.11.08 
<br>
<br>ASK HUNGRY GIRL 
<br>
<br>Dear Hungry Girl, 
<br>
<br>I love the Chili Lime Chicken Burgers at Trader Joe's, but they seem so oily 
<br>to me. I have a hard time believing that they only have 3 grams of fat each. 
<br>What do you think, HG? 
<br>
<br>Doubting the CBs in CA  
<br> 
<br> 
<br>Dear Doubting, 
<br>
<br>You know, I'm really glad you asked this question. I receive TONS of emails 
<br>about these burgers. We were eating them for a while at the HG HQ as well 
<br>and noticed the EXACT same thing. In fact, we recently took one of the 
<br>burgers to a lab, and the results weren't pretty. It contained almost 60% 
<br>more calories than the box claimed (175 rather than 110), and it had nearly 
<br>FOUR times as much fat as the label stated (a total of 11 grams fat!). Please 
<br>keep in mind, this doesn't mean that all of those burgers have that many 
<br>calories or that much fat. It could have been a fluke. We took ONE patty, 
<br>from ONE box, from ONE Trader Joe's location to a lab. We didn't test 
<br>multiple patties from many different boxes and locations. The important thing 
<br>to take away from this is if something SEEMS extra oily or fatty, there's a 
<br>chance that it could have more fat and/or calories than the label states. So 
<br>be careful. In the case of those chicken burgers, if you do want to continue 
<br>eating them, try to rid 'em of excess oil by smashing the patties with a 
<br>spatula while cooking, and then draining the oil that seeps out. Then blot any 
<br>remaining oiliness from them with a paper towel after cooking. If you do this, 
<br>you'll definitely cut a bunch of fat grams from those burgers. BTW, Trader 
<br>Joe's did change the label on their Banana Crisps after results from 2 
<br>different labs found the stats to be way off -- we hope they'll do the same if 
<br>the nutritionals on these burgers are in fact incorrect. Good luck -- and 
<br>happy chewing!
<br>  
<br>

<br>Dear HG, 
<br>
<br>I purchased 2 copies of your book (LOVE it!) and sent away for the special 
<br>free goodie pack from HG and Yoplait, but I still haven't received the 
<br>freebies. When can I expect to get them? 
<br>

<br> 
<br> 
<br>Dear Losing Patience, 
<br>
<br>So glad you love the book! As for the free goodie pack -- the HG tote bag, 
<br>the parfait glass and the Yoplait Light coupon take about 6 - 8 weeks for 
<br>delivery once General Mills receives your form and receipt. I know that 
<br>seems like a long time, but it actually isn't THAT bad (really, it's not!). 
<br>There's something kinda fun about receiving a package once you've 
<br>forgotten it was coming. And when you see how cute the stuff is, you'll be so 
<br>happy (it's worth the wait)! For those of you who are unfamiliar with what I'm 
<br>referring to, there's a special "buy 2 HG books, get some free cool stuff from 
<br>Yoplait and HG" offer. You can read more about it by clicking here. And 
<br>remember, supplies are limited and they're going FAST! 
<br> 
<br>

<br>CHEW ON THIS: 
<br>Today, June 11th, is National German Chocolate Cake Day. Your best bet 
<br>may be to celebrate by scrubbing yourself with a chocolate-scented body 
<br>polish like this one, as opposed to chewing on some actual German 
<br>Chocolate Cake. Just our opinion...
