<br>
<br>
<br>Spotted on Shelves...
<br>
<br>Baked Classics Potato Crisps - Yup, the shelves are OVERFLOWING with guilt-
<br>free chip options, but Baked Classics are worth checking out. They come in 
<br>Mesquite Barbeque and Sour Cream & Onion, and each 1-oz. bag has just 
<br>120 calories, 1.5 - 2.5g fat, 19g carbs, 1g fiber, and 1g protein (POINTS&reg; 
<br>value 2*). These chips are airy and crispy in texture (almost like super-light 
<br>soy crisps or mini rice cakes). Mmmmmm! They can be found on select 
<br>supermarket shelves and EASILY ordered online. Two YUMS up!
<br>
<br>Jell-O Sugar Free Gelatin with Antioxidants - If you like your wiggly desserts 
<br>to have cancer-fighting abilities, you'll be pleased to know that Jell-O has just 
<br>launched a line of 10-calorie gelatin snack cups that are enhanced with 
<br>vitamins A and E. Available in two flavors with healthy "buzzwords" -- 
<br>Strawberry Acai and Raspberry Goji. We've heard a Cherry Pomegranate 
<br>flavor has also been spotted at Costco.
<br>
<br>Praeventia Cookies in Dark Chocolate Chip 70% Cocoa with Red Wine 
<br>Extract and Orange Zest with Green Tea Extract - Okay, these bite-sized 
<br>cookies win the award for having the WORST name and the most 
<br>snoozefesty-sounding flavors, but they are REALLY good. We tried 'em and 
<br>we LIKE 'em... a lot. They even come in cute little heart shapes and are 
<br>made with healthy ingredients. Each pouch contains about eight cookies and 
<br>has 140 - 150 calories, 5 - 6g fat, 21 - 22g carbs, 3 - 4g fiber, and 2g protein 
<br>(POINTS&reg; value 3*). BTW, we found ours at Target.  
<br> 
<br> 
<br> 
<br>Soooo... Is Menu Labeling Changing Habits?!
<br>
<br>As you know, chain restaurants in NYC with 15+ locations have been 
<br>required to post calorie counts for a while now, and other cities are following 
<br>suit. So is this blatant "calories in your face" approach working? It would 
<br>appear so! In a recent survey, 82% of NYers said the posted nutritional info 
<br>affects what they order. And, believe it or not, 60% say it's actually affecting 
<br>which restaurants they visit. This is good news, people! It means we're 
<br>becoming more responsible and a bit smarter about the foods we eat. 
<br>Lawmakers in Philly, Los Angeles, and other cities have jumped on the 
<br>calorie-posting bandwagon, too. (But the Philly law doesn't go into effect until 
<br>2010, and CA chains have until 2011 to post the stats... Boo!) Let's hope 
<br>more and more cities and counties sign on soon. Know what would be even 
<br>MORE effective? If your server said, "Are you SURE you don't want fruit 
<br>instead of FRIES with that omelette?" or "OMG, you CANNOT order the 
<br>Caesar dressing... it has 78 grams of fat!" We can dream...   
<br>

<br>Ooooh, Diet Cherry 7UP's gettin' an extreme makeover... an EXTREMELY 
<br>COOL makeover actually. The new fizzfest of a beverage -- Diet Cherry 7UP 
<br>Antioxidant -- packs 10% of your recommended vitamin E intake into each 
<br>cup. Cool! ***A new study suggests that moms who are surrounded by 
<br>chaos and face financial instability are more likely to be obese. So if your 
<br>home is stress-and-pressure-packed, you're more likely to pack on pounds. 
<br>The same study, however, suggests that chaotic households and instability 
<br>do NOT affect the weight of the children living in these homes. Interesting 
<br>stuff. Click here for more on that. ***Looking for clever, fun, inventive 
<br>remedies that use NATURAL stuff and TOTALLY work? Check out this cool 
<br>book from our pals the Wilen sisters. It's called Healing Remedies: More
