***ATTENTION TEXT-ONLY HG SUBSCRIBERS (this means YOU!): Since only
<br>a tiny fraction of our audience receives our emails in text-only form, and the
<br>emails look so much better designed in HTML, we have decided to stop
<br>sending out the text-only versions of Hungry Girl newsletters. This change
<br>will happen in the very near future. Keep an eye out for the HTML versions in
<br>your inbox... coming soon!***

<br>Hungry Girl Today: 9.21.09
<br>
<br>
<br>Spotted on Shelves...
<br>
<br>Mousse Temptations by Jell-O - This is, HANDS DOWN, the most creative and 
<br>delicious guilt-free stuff to come out of the Jell-O kitchen in, well, possibly 
<br>FOREVER. It's available in three flavors -- Chocolate Indulgence, Dark 
<br>Chocolate Decadence, and Caramel Creme -- and has 60 calories, 2.5 - 3g 
<br>fat, 9 - 10g carbs, 0 - 1g fiber, and 1 - 2g protein (POINTS&reg; value 1*) per 
<br>snack cup. You MUST try all the flavors! They're popping up on select shelves 
<br>now, and we're told they'll be EVERYWHERE by October. Yay, mousse! 
<br>
<br>Campbell's Light Condensed Soups - We broke the news about these last 
<br>month, and now they're OUT! People who like their soup low in price AND 
<br>calories will be super-psyched about this line. There are currently five 
<br>varieties -- Chicken Gumbo, Chicken Mushroom Barley, Chicken with White 
<br>& Wild Rice, Italian-Style Wedding, and Vegetable Orzo. Pretty fancy for a 
<br>just-add-water snack or meal-starter, especially one with 70 - 80 calories, 1 -
<br> 2g fat, 12 - 14g carbs, 1 - 3g fiber, and 2 - 4g protein (POINTS&reg; value 1*) 
<br>per half-cup. PLUS, it costs less than a buck per serving. Nice!
<br>
<br>Old El Paso Stand 'n Stuff Taco Shells - The name says it all. These flat-
<br>bottomed shells stand on their own (we're so proud!) and have plenty of 
<br>room for stuffin'. Adios, taco shells that tip over and empty their contents 
<br>before you can eat them! A 2-shell serving has only 130 calories, 6g fat, 16g 
<br>carbs, 1g fiber, and 2g protein (POINTS&reg; value 3*). Kinda makes us wanna 
<br>sing, Flat-bottomed shells, you make the rockin' world go 'round!
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>Bitty Bites...
<br>
<br>Laser-Tattooed Fruit!
<br>We're impressed, intrigued, and a little weirded out by this story. Word on 
<br>the web has it that, pretty soon, the produce you pick up at your local 
<br>market might be imprinted with info about its point of origin. Those little fruit 
<br>stickers you sometimes forget to remove could become a thing of the past. 
<br>Researchers say the new laser-etching technology is not harmful and won't 
<br>affect the deliciousness of your fruits and veggies. "Tattoo" testing is 
<br>currently underway on citrus fruits, avocados, garlic, and tomatoes. Next 
<br>thing you know, our Fuji apples will be riding around on tiny motorcycles and 
<br>getting their stems pierced... 
<br>
<br>
<br>Win Dunkin' Donuts Coffee for a YEAR!!!
<br>As huge fans of DD's coffee (it truly is the BEST kind to throw into your 
<br>coffeemaker!), we're beyond excited about this new sweepstakes. All you 
<br>have to do is enroll in the online DD Perks program (for free!), and you'll 
<br>automatically have a chance to win EVERY WEEK the contest is running -- 
<br>through March of next year! Each weekly winner will get two pounds of 
<br>Dunkin' Donuts Original Blend Coffee every month for a year. Three cheers 
<br>for the Double D! 
<br>
<br>
<br>Morning Meals = MUST-HAVES! 
<br>Eat. Your. Breakfast. We've all been told that eating in the AM can lead to 
<br>lower calorie-consumption throughout the day, but now researchers from 
<br>Imperial College London think they know WHY. They say not eating in the 
<br>morning can trick the brain into thinking it wants those high-calorie foods we 
<br>try desperately NOT to crave. So if you're trying to drop a few pounds, 
<br>skipping breakfast is NOT the way to do it and could actually cause you to 
<br>GAIN weight. Eeek! We're going to make a low-cal scramble right now... 
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>The Buzz...
<br>
<br>Have you heard of Chia Goodness? It's a breakfast cereal made with chia 
<br>seeds (yes, the same ones used to grow Chia Pets!). Apparently the stuff is 
<br>healthy, and it doesn't taste bad either. The cereal has 130 - 140 calories 
<br>and 6 - 8g fat for two tablespoons, though, which is sorta hefty. (It can be 
<br>mixed with liquid a la oatmeal or eaten granola-style.) But people insist it's 
<br>super-filling! Pssst... If you do want to try adding chia to your diet, go for the 
<br>cereal as opposed to chomping into what's growing out of your sheep-shaped 
<br>ceramic planter. (Seriously, Chia Pets are not FDA-approved for eating!) 
<br>***Snacking in the middle of the night could make you gain weight, and not 
<br>just because of extra calorie intake. Recent studies found that mice that 
<br>nibbled during their "sleep time" were more likely to pack on pounds than 
<br>those that ate exactly the same but during "awake time." Messing with 
<br>natural body rhythms could be to blame. But is it true for people as well? No 
<br>word on that yet. ***Calorie-free cupcake alert! Order something flower-ific 
<br>from the Cupcakes for a Cause collection by 1-800-FLOWERS, and 10% of 
<br>the net proceeds will go to CancerCare for Kids. You can also decorate and 
<br>send a virtual cupcake for free -- the flower folks will donate $1 for each of 
<br>those sent, up to $5,000. Do it! It's happening this month only. That's all 
<br>we've got. HG out!
