***ATTENTION TEXT-ONLY HG SUBSCRIBERS (this means YOU!): Since only

<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>Hungry Girl Today: 9.28.09
<br>
<br>
<br>Spotted on Shelves...
<br>
<br>New & Improved! Hershey's Sugar Free Chocolate Syrup - The old SF 
<br>chocolate syrup was only OK, so our buddies over at Hershey's took a step 
<br>back, reconfigured the stuff, and rebuilt it -- better... stronger... faster... 
<br>MORE chocolatey! It's WAY better! A 2-tbsp. serving has just 15 calories, 0g 
<br>fat, 5g carbs, <1g fiber, and <1g protein (POINTS&reg; value 0*). Sweet! 
<br>
<br>Kashi Heart to Heart Warm Cinnamon Oat Cereal - Don't let the name fool 
<br>you. This is actually a COLD cereal, flavored with cinnamon & spices that 
<br>pack some... warmth! In addition to being delicious, this AM treat is also 
<br>loaded with antioxidants, including green tea, white tea, and grape seed 
<br>extracts. A 3/4-cup serving has 110 calories, 1.5g fat, 24g carbs, 5g fiber, 
<br>and 4g protein (POINTS&reg; value 2*). PLUS, it's low in sodium and pretty 
<br>much all-around AMAZING.
<br>
<br>Yo-Plus Light Yogurt - Yoplait's fancy digestion-balancing yogurt, Yo-Plus, is 
<br>now available in three calorie-slashed, fiber-packed flavors -- Light Key Lime 
<br>Pie, Light Strawberry Banana, and Light Honey Vanilla. They're all 
<br>DELICIOUS, but we're especially impressed with the Honey Vanilla. Each 4-
<br>oz. container has 70 fat-free calories, 15g carbs, 3g fiber, and 4g protein 
<br>(POINTS&reg; value 1*). Yay, Yoplait!
<br>

<br>
<br>Bitty Bites...
<br>
<br>Label Lies -- Worse Than We Thought!
<br>If someone told you that the nutritional stats on one out of every four labels 
<br>tested were found to be WRONG, you'd probably FREAK. Well according to 
<br>this article, it's true. Not only do food companies get away with inaccurate 
<br>labeling, but the products most likely to be mislabeled are those targeted at 
<br>people with certain dietary concerns (like sodium-watchers and carb-
<br>counters). Check out the article (featuring input from HG herself), and then 
<br>tell us what YOU think about it on our Facebook page. And for advice on how 
<br>to prevent lying labels from derailing your diet, click HERE.

<br>Serving Size 101 and a BRAND-SPANKIN'-NEW HG Video!!!
<br>How CRAZY are restaurant portion sizes?! Um, VERY. Here are a couple of 
<br>FABULOUS resources to help you battle super-sized servings. First, this 
<br>slideshow is packed with tips on how to spot and serve the reasonable 
<br>portions of many common foods. For example, a 3-oz. serving of meat is 
<br>about the size of a deck of cards, a single serving of cooked pasta should be 
<br>half the size of a baseball, and if you want rice, have about as much as 
<br>would be contained in a cupcake wrapper. Next, click HERE to check out this 
<br>never-before-seen HG video about the shocking truth surrounding the 
<br>serving size of a super-familiar breakfast food. Then go out into the world, 
<br>armed with your newfound knowledge, and CHEW THINGS!
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>Stuff You Didn't Know You Needed...
<br>
<br>The Lunchbox by OOTS! - This multi-containered thing has been called "the 
<br>Cadillac of lunchboxes," and for good reason. We recently got our hands on 
<br>one, and it ROCKS. That strap on the top is more than just a handle -- it's 
<br>also a water-bottle holder. The 'Box includes a whole bunch of little bento-
<br>esque containers (which fit perfectly inside) that can hold tons of different 
<br>food items. COOL! This super-deluxe item isn't exactly cheap, so our friends 
<br>at delight.com are hooking you up with free shipping on ALL orders over $45 
<br>with coupon code: HG09. (That's 09 as in 2009, and be sure to cap the HG. 
<br>Offer expires 10/2.) 
<br>
<br>
<br>Condiment Gun - Warning: The following product may inspire extremely 
<br>messy food fights. Proceed with caution. Alright, now that THAT's out of the 
<br>way, HOW FUN IS THIS?! Load up your "gun" with ketchup or mustard (or 
<br>any other sauce you want to shoot) and fire away. Those hot dogs and 
<br>hamburgers won't know what hit 'em! You may want to keep your new toy 
<br>away from children, though... and immature friends.
<br>
<br>
<br>Write-On Glassware - As crazed multi-taskers, we love to make lists and 
<br>keep 'em handy. If you're sick of burning through Post-it Notes like they're 
<br>going out of style, maybe this mug or tumbler is right for you. And at the end 
<br>of the day, just erase your old to-do list, and you're ready for another day of 
<br>coffee-fueled productivity. Right on, write-on glassware!
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>The Buzz...
<br>
<br>Hey, sneakypants! If you're a fan of red velvet (the flavor, not the fabric), 
<br>head over to a local Weight Watchers meeting location and grab a box of the 
<br>company's little-known Red Velvet Mini Bars, with a POINTS&reg; value of 1 per 
<br>bar. They're GOOD. Many locations let you pop in to buy stuff even if you're 
<br>not a member. You could also scope the web for some. RED VELVET... 
<br>Mmmmmmm! Grab a few boxes before they're gone. (You know how these 
<br>flavors come and go!) ***Want to know all about food recalls and food 
<br>safety in general? FoodSafety.gov is a great online resource, with tons of info 
<br>provided by government agencies. Totally worth checking out, so click! 
<br>***Sugar-free preserves with FIBER? It's true! Polaner has come out with an 
<br>entire line of fruit-flavored sugar-free spreads that are jammed (get it?!) with 
<br>fiber -- 3 grams per tablespoon! More on that soon. ***Oooh, limited-
<br>edition sandwich alert! Subway is serving up a brand-new Low-Fat Buffalo 
<br>Chicken sub. With sauce-glazed chicken and a new light ranch dressing, a six-
<br>inch sub has 370 calories and 7g fat (POINTS&reg; value 7*), but you can shave 
<br>off around 200 calories by getting it salad-style over lettuce. It'll only be 
<br>around 'til the middle of next month, so order up! ***Need some help 
<br>understanding sweeteners, from the artificial to naturally derived? Here's a 
<br>good article that breaks it all down for you. Nicely done! That's all we've got. 
<br>HG out!
