Hungry Girl Today: 6.01.09
Spotted On Shelves...
Little Lender's Bagels - Thanks to our bagel-baking pals at Lender's, you can
now have holey bread items in all different sizes and calorie counts. There
are Little Lender's (70 calories and a POINTS® value of 1* each), Lender's
100 Calorie (POINTS® value of 2* each), and Lender's Mini Bagels (140 -
160 calories and a POINTS® value of 3* each). The itty-bitty 70-calorie ones
are adorable, but chances are you'll wanna pop a bunch at a time, so be
warned! Look for the Little and 100 Calorie ones in the fridge section, and
find the Minis with the shelf-stable bread products.
GNC be-Nourished Nutritional Bars - The bar market is overcrowded, for
sure, but these new 140-calorie offerings from GNC are REALLY good. We've
tried the Chocolate Soy Crisp, Cinnamon Almond Crunch, and Peanut
Caramel Crisp -- thumbs up to all those flavors, but the Cinnamon Almond
Crunch rocks the most. With 3.5 - 4g fat and 14 - 17g carbs, each one packs
in 2 - 3g fiber and 10 - 12g protein (POINTS® value 3*). Impressive!!!
Mishima Clear Noodle Soup - It may be too hot outside to write about soup,
but this particular SOUP is way too hot to NOT write about. In Miso/Soy Bean
Paste, Szechwan Style/Spicy Sesame Paste, and Thai Style/Tom Yam Kung
Flavor, each container of this just-add-water instant soup has only 90 - 100
calories, 0 - 2g fat, 18 - 21g carbs, and 2 - 3g protein (POINTS® value 2*).
Just an FYI, theyre a bit high in sodium. We're not sure if these have
saturated markets nationally yet, but we CANNOT wait until they do. In the
meantime, they can be found at Japanese markets. (And were told theyll
become available online VERY soon!) Run -- don't walk -- to the store and
stock up on these glass-noodle-filled instant soup cups. TWO YUMS UP,
PEOPLE!!!
OMG! Insane Savings, HG Style...
Okay, all the hard work's been done for you, humans. We've scoured the
web in search of the bestest bargains and coupons, and we found some great
stuff...
Amazon Manager's Special - They've STILL got it! Over 2,500 goodies on
sale -- everything from Popchips and Zoe's Granola to 100 Calorie Packs and
Genisoy Soy Crisps. Click around and check out all the spectacular offers.
The savings have already been applied, so no special code is needed. And
don't be lazy -- there's TONS here!!!

$1.00-off coupons for a bazillion HG-friendly items. Like what, say you? Like
Crystal Light, Jell-O (the Sugar Free stuff!), Bagel-fuls, Cool Whip (Cool Whip

Have fun!!!
Weight Watchers Alert! New & Improved Website and Top-Secret Guilt-Free
Snacks... YAY!!!
eTools Got a Makeover! - Weight Watchers just got even better. Their brand-
spankin'-new eTools site setup is FANTASTIC -- MUCH more user-friendly
than before. A large graphic toolbar displays the POINTS® Tracker,
POINTS® Calculators, and other tools for easy access. Another section
makes searching the recipe database super-simple. You can browse by
keyword, POINTS® value, or meal type. There are also interactive cheat
sheets, fitness demos, and more, all right there on the member homepage.
Big improvement, Double W!
Shhhh! Secret Snacks - More kudos to WW for their insanely delicious snacks
that are ONLY sold at meeting locations -- including to-die-for Pretzel Thins
and Multigrain Crisps, which each have about 100 - 110 calories, 1.5g fat,
21g carbs, 1 - 2g fiber, and 2 - 3g protein per pouch (POINTS® value 2).
AHHHHHHH, so good! (Psssst... You don't need to be a WW member to
buy 'em, so head on in to get some ASAP!)
The Buzz...
Big, BIG news, people. A brand-new version of the delicious Fiber One Yogurt
is debuting next month. Same amazing flavors (and taste!), but with only 50
calories, zero grams of fat, and a whopping five grams of fiber per 4-oz. cup
(POINTS® value 0*)! We've tried these and love them so much that they'll
now feature Hungry Girl and our seal of approval ALL OVER the pack. They
go into production this month, so expect to see them on store shelves soon!
***Know anyone who owns or manages a restaurant? Send them to Welltech
Bistro, a company that will not only convince them it's important to provide
nutritional info for customers, but it will also help them obtain that info and
figure out the best ways to present it. WE HEART WELLTECH BISTRO and
want to spread the word about it. Click here for more on that. And share the
link with food-industry people EVERYWHERE. ***Want to take in fewer
calories? Change a light bulb! According to one color-psychology expert,
changing the bulb in your fridge from white to blue, giving your food a blue-
ish tint, may very well cause your food to look less appetizing and result in
you eating less. We don't make this stuff up; we just report it. Click to read
more about this bizarre concept. ***Check out our latest video to hit the
web! It's HG's Lisa throwing out the first pitch at an Oakland A's baseball
game! (That catcher should've dove and caught the ball. Check it out and
see if you agree.) ***Did you know cooking some veggies could actually
cause them to become healthier?! Tomatoes, carrots, cabbage, spinach, and
peppers are just SOME of the veggies that may be better for you if they're
boiled or steamed. Click for the full story. And... that is ALL we've got for you
this week. HG out!
