***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: 3.22.10
<br>
<br>Spotted on Shelves...
<br>
<br>Hormel Real Crumbled Bacon, Peppered - We're BIG fans of the precooked 
<br>real crumbled bacon found in the salad dressing aisle. Why? It's delicious and 
<br>convenient, and it has 50 percent less fat than the standard pan-fried kind. 
<br>And it just got even BETTER with this black-pepper-coated version! Like the 
<br>original, a tablespoon of savory goodness has 25 calories, 1.5g fat, 190mg 
<br>sodium, and 3g protein (POINTS&reg; value 1*). P.S. There's a maple-flavored 
<br>variety, too! 
<br>
<br>Smucker's Low Sugar Preserves - Yes, we're aware this stuff has been 
<br>around for a while. We just want to make sure you know that it's a) 
<br>DELICIOUS, and b) a terrific, lower-calorie alternative to full-sugar jellies for 
<br>people who aren't nuts about the sugar-free kind. In Concord Grape, Orange 
<br>Marmalade, Red Raspberry, Strawberry, and Apricot, each tablespoon has 25 
<br>fat-free calories, 6g carbs, and 5g sugars (POINTS&reg; value 1*). AWESOME! 
<br>
<br>Snikiddy All Natural Baked Snacks - Laugh at us all you want for eating 
<br>goodies aimed at kiddies -- we can take it. If it means finding treats like 
<br>THESE, it's worth it. Mac n' Cheese Puffs? Ketchup-flavored Baked Fries? 
<br>Pizza Puffs?! Who's gonna turn their nose up at these wholesome snacks? A 
<br>1-oz. serving has 110 - 130 calories, 4 - 4.5g fat, 180 - 190mg sodium, 17 - 
<br>21g carbs, 1g fiber, 0 - 2g sugars, and 2 - 3g protein (POINTS&reg; value 2 - 
<br>3*). Mmmmm! Find 'em at select stores or order online.

<br> Bitty Bites!
<br>
<br>History in the Making: Panera Posts Calorie Counts Nationwide!
<br>Bakery-caf&eacute; chain Panera Bread has had its calorie counts public for a 
<br>while... but this is a whole other level. Come April, all company-owned 
<br>locations (including those under the Saint Louis Bread Co. moniker) will have 
<br>the numbers printed RIGHT ON THE MENU BOARDS. AHHHHH! And even 
<br>though Panera can't force franchise owners to comply, the company is 
<br>expecting they'll fall in line with the new full-disclosure concept. Hopefully this 
<br>becomes a lasting trend -- Yum! Brands (parent company of KFC, Taco Bell, 
<br>Pizza Hut, etc.) plans to post calorie counts at corporate-owned locations, 
<br>too, by January of next year. WOOHOO! 
<br>
<br>
<br>Vitaminwater10... From Hero to Zero!?
<br>As you may have heard (or seen, if you watch the judges on American Idol 
<br>closely), Vitaminwater recently reformulated its low-calorie line, previously 
<br>dubbed Vitaminwater10. The good news? It now has zero calories per 
<br>serving. Appropriately, it now goes by the name Vitaminwater Zero. The bad 
<br>news? It doesn't taste NEARLY as good. And taste is super important (doy!). 
<br>V10 was TOTALLY worth those few calories. We want to like Vitaminwater 
<br>Zero. So much. But when it comes to stevia-sweetened beverages, we've 
<br>found that it's really hit or miss. And to be completely honest, this one's a big 
<br>fat MISS. (Bring back Vitaminwater10!) Taste it and let us know what you 
<br>think. And if you see any bottles of Vitaminwater10 still floating around in 
<br>stores, STOCK UP! 
<br>
<br>
<br>HG at the Natural Foods Expo (AWESOME Up-and-Coming Food Finds)!
<br>We recently chewed and sipped our way through aisles and aisles of brand-
<br>new food items at Expo West. Here's what we found... Our pals at Amy's 
<br>spoon-fed us the new Hearty Spanish Rice & Red Bean Soup. A-MAZING. 
<br>Very unique with a delicious smoky flavor. Only 140 calories and 2.5g fat 
<br>(POINTS&reg; value 2*) per half-can serving. A not-yet-released soup we fell for 
<br>is Kettle Cuisine's Tomato with Spiral Rice Noodles. It tastes like a grown-up 
<br>version of SpaghettiOs (and we mean that as a HUGE compliment). Possibly 
<br>our FAVORITE discovery is this freezer-dwelling product: Naked Nuggets, 
<br>a.k.a. The Planet's First Grilled Chicken Nugget! Precooked, all-natural, white-
<br>meat nuggies minus the breading and oil. Woohoo! A 3-oz. serving (about 7 
<br>nuggets) has 140 calories and 3g fat (POINTS&reg; value 3*). And finally, a low-
<br>cal energy drink that doesn't make us cringe. Ex Drinks Slim Energy is crazy 
<br>tasty and has only 15 calories per can (POINTS&reg; value 0*). It's fruity, tangy, 
<br>and packed with vitamins. Congrats, items, we LIKE you... we really LIKE 
<br>you!!!

<br>The Buzz...
<br>
<br>HG EVENT ALERT! Do you love Hungry Girl, FREE snacks, and FUN prizes?! If 
<br>so, you REALLY should come out to meet Lisa (HG herself) and celebrate the 
<br>release of the latest and greatest HG cookbook, Hungry Girl 1-2-3: The 
<br>Easiest, Most Delicious, Guilt-Free Recipes on the Planet! The book comes out 
<br>NEXT TUESDAY (3/30), and there's a slew of fantastic book-signing events 
<br>planned. There'll be FREE LAUGHING COW CHEESE, FREE VITATOPS, FREE 
<br>POPCHIPS and, in some states, FREE TASTI D-LITE (treats on site and 
<br>freebie gift cards)! The first event is in NYC next Wednesday (3/31), followed 
<br>by one in White Plains, NY, that Saturday (4/3)! Next up... HG'll be in 
<br>California for events in Los Angeles (4/8) and Costa Mesa (4/10). Then it's 
<br>on to Phoenix (4/16)! Click here for ALL the info. YAY! And tell us which 
<br>event you're most excited about. ***Ooh, free samples! NutraSalt Low 
<br>Sodium Sea Salt has a whopping 66% less sodium than regular salt, making 
<br>it an awesome (and all-natural) alternative. And our sodium-slashing pals at 
<br>NutraSalt are giving HGers the chance to try it for free, while supplies last. 
<br>(Expires 4/1/10.) Just click here, humans! ***Always assumed that the 
<br>saying "an apple a day keeps the doctor away" is an old wives' tale? First of 
<br>all, we're not exactly crazy about the term "old wives' tale," and secondly, 
<br>this one may be TRUE. A University of Illinois study found that soluble fiber -- 
<br>like the kind found in apples -- helps to strengthen the immune system. YAY, 
<br>APPLES! (We love you, Fujis... Mwah! Mwah!) ***Wondering what's on deck 
<br>this week in HG Land? Check your inbox daily for all-new slow-cooker recipes, 
<br>a rockin' seafood swap, and a sneak peek at the recipes in HG 1-2-3! That's 
<br>all we've got. HG out!
