<br>Hungry Girl Today: 06.16.08 
<br>
<br>
<br>Spotted on Shelves...
<br>
<br>Pepperidge Farm Baked Naturals - They're baked, and they're natural (hence 
<br>the name), but these new crunchy offerings (Wheat Crisps, Pretzel Thins and 
<br>Snack Sticks, in various and sundry flavors) from the peeps at Pepp F. also 
<br>taste great. So great, in fact, that you may want to break the box down into 
<br>single servings or keep the stuff in another part of the house (or locked in a 
<br>cabinet!) -- if you don't, there's a good chance you'll snarf down an entire 
<br>box without thinking about it. Don't say we didn't warn you. A serving of each 
<br>of these snacks (11 - 17 pieces) has 110 - 140 calories, 0 - 6g fat, <1 - 2g 
<br>fiber and a POINTS&reg; value of 2 - 3*. 
<br>
<br>South Beach Living Hot Sandwich Melts - Cheese + Meat + Sauce + Whole 
<br>Wheat Buns = the new South Beach Living Hot Sandwich Melts. These fridge 
<br>kits are great for when you're crunched for time. In Turkey Santa Fe (350 
<br>calories, 15g fat, 8g fiber -- POINTS&reg; value 7*) and Oven Roasted Ham & 
<br>Swiss (320 calories, 11g fat, 8g fiber -- POINTS&reg; value 7*). Some assembly 
<br>required. 
<br>
<br>Brach's 100 Calorie Packs, Orchard Fruit Tiny Gummi Bears - If you're the 
<br>type of person who appreciates cute food, your head may explode when you 
<br>catch a glimpse of these teeny tiny colorful gummis. Each pack (100 calories, 
<br>0g fat, 0g fiber -- POINTS&reg; value 2*) contains 48 itty bitty bears in a lovely 
<br>array of colors and flavors. It's crowded in that bag, peeps! Made from real 
<br>fruit juice, these bears are loaded with vitamin C -- 60% the RDA in each 
<br>pack!  
<br> 
<br> 
<br> 
<br>Tomato Alert!!!
<br>
<br>Wondering what to make of this whole tomato salmonella fiasco? Here's the 
<br>scoop. The FDA is recommending that people do NOT eat raw red Roma 
<br>tomatoes, raw red plum tomatoes, raw red round tomatoes, or products 
<br>containing them (unless said tomatoes have been grown and harvested in 
<br>select areas listed on the FDA website). Restaurants and grocery stores have 
<br>been advised not to serve or sell these tomatoes, as well. Tomatoes not 
<br>associated with this salmonella scare are cherry tomatoes, grape tomatoes, 
<br>tomatoes sold with the vine still attached, and tomatoes grown at home. For 
<br>more information on this, click here for the latest updates. FYI, experts say 
<br>simply washing your tomatoes really well is NOT enough to get rid of the 
<br>contamination, and the FDA does not recommend cooking these tomatoes 
<br>either. So stick with those tomato types not associated with the outbreak -- 
<br>at least for the time being!   
<br>

<br>The Buzz...
<br>
<br>Another hot book find, people! Need a little help figuring out what to believe 
<br>when it comes to all the conflicting info about your health? The Healthy 
<br>Skeptic is a MUST-READ! It's packed with info that will help you figure out 
<br>what you should and shouldn't believe (and why) when it comes to health-
<br>related hype. The book's author, Robert Davis, is a close personal pal of 
<br>ours, and he explains (in very simple terms!) how to evaluate studies. He 
<br>also reveals fantastic resources for unbiased information. Simply put, THIS 
<br>BOOK ROCKS! Click here for more info or to order a copy. ***Speaking of 
<br>being a "healthy skeptic", the Grocery Manufacturers Association recently 
<br>released a guide designed to provide accurate info on high-fructose corn 
<br>syrup. The guide highlights the findings of an expert panel at The University 
<br>of Maryland Center for Food, Nutrition, and Agriculture Policy. The panel 
<br>concluded, "HFCS does not appear to contribute to overweight and obesity 
<br>any differently than any other energy sources." In other words, high-fructose 
<br>corn syrup is no different than other caloric sweeteners -- it can be part of a 
<br>healthy lifestyle as long as it's used in moderation. We've been hearing that 
<br>same thing from our nutrition expert friends for a few years now -- good 
<br>news! ***We knew THIS was bound to happen... A Seattle woman is suing 
<br>some major chain restaurants because she claims they have derailed her 
<br>diet (click here for the story that likely led to this lawsuit). While the suit may 
<br>be extreme, in some odd way we're on board with it. We support ANYTHING 
<br>at all that can help FORCE food companies and restaurants to be truthful and 
<br>careful about their nutritional info. More on that as the story develops. And, 
<br>that's all we've got. HG out! 
<br>
<br>

<br>here's one now! HG will be hitting up Denver on July 29th for another rockin' 
<br>event -- books will be signed, prizes will be given, snacks will be free! Click
