<br>ASK HUNGRY GIRL
<br>
<br>
<br>Hi, Hungry Girl!
<br>
<br>I tried your Grab 'n Go Breakfast Cookies -- they are great! My question is 
<br>about the Fiber One cereal that gets ground up into crumbs and mixed into 
<br>the batter. The recipe calls for 1/4 cup Fiber One. Should I be measuring out 
<br>that 1/4 cup before I put the cereal in the blender, or after it's been ground 
<br>into crumbs? I just want to make sure. Thank you!!! 
<br>
<br>Questioning Cookies
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>Dear Questioning Cookies,
<br>
<br>Thanks for emailing! Glad you like those cookies. I'm a big fan of them, too! 
<br>For that recipe, you need to measure 1/4 cup of the cereal itself FIRST, and 
<br>THEN blend it into crumbs. That's typically how it works with our recipes that 
<br>involve blending up F1 cereal. The ingredients list tells you how much of the 
<br>whole cereal to start with... and then you blend! It's like that because I want 
<br>HG recipes to be as user-friendly as possible -- and I think it's much easier if 
<br>you know how much of the actual cereal you'll need as opposed to how much 
<br>of the ground cereal crumbs you'll need. But here's a little trick... If you want 
<br>to make those cookies (or any of our recipes that use F1 crumbs) often, you 
<br>can blend up a whole bunch of the cereal at once, and then store the crumbs 
<br>in an airtight container. When you're ready to make your recipe, just 
<br>measure out HALF the amount of cereal called for -- so if the recipe calls for 
<br>1/4 cup cereal, use 2 tbsp. crumbs. Get it? GOOD! Thanks for checking in!
<br>

<br>Dear HG,
<br>
<br>I recently discovered a DELICIOUS frozen dinner: Stouffer's Green Pepper 
<br>Steak. The nutrition label says that it only has 240 calories for the whole 
<br>package, but I looked it up online and found calorie counts ranging from 240 
<br>to 330 calories! Help me, HG! Who am I supposed to believe here?
<br>
<br>Pepper Steak Perplexed
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>Dear Perplexed,
<br>
<br>Glad you found something new to eat that you love! Sometimes you'll find 
<br>conflicting nutritional info out there, which is definitely annoying. Your best 
<br>bet is to always assume that the actual package has the most current and 
<br>correct nutritional info. (This is what the food companies tell me, anyway!) I 
<br>checked the official Stouffer's site, and it does say the Green Pepper Steak 
<br>has 240 calories, just like your box says -- so that's good news! When you 
<br>look up nutritional stats online, always make sure to check the official 
<br>company website. You can also try calling the phone number on the package 
<br>or on the website (typically in the "Contact Us" section) -- the customer 
<br>service people are usually pretty helpful. Happy chewing!!!
