***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>
<br>
<br>This is the text version of Hungry Girl.

<br>Hungry Girl Today: 7.26.10 
<br> 
<br>Spotted on Shelves...
<br>
<br>New Flavors! Quaker Chewy Granola Bars - Gooey snack bars studded with 
<br>chocolate chips are good. Ones with real cocoa mixed in are a whole other 
<br>story! Introducing the newest in the Chewy lineup, Chocolatey Mint and 
<br>Chocolate Swirl! Each bar has 90 calories, 2g fat, 80mg sodium, 18 - 19g 
<br>carbs, 1g fiber, 6g sugars, and 1g protein (POINTS&reg; value 2*). Soooo 
<br>good... 
<br>
<br>Dole Very Veggie Salad Blend - Enjoy the convenience of bagged salad but 
<br>find the veggie combos less than thrilling? Hold the phone! (Unless the call's 
<br>important.) In addition to the usual (delicious) salad suspects, this just-dress 
<br>mix has SNOW PEAS! (We LOVE snow peas.) Score! A serving of about 1 1/2 
<br>cups has 20 calories, 0g fat, 20mg sodium, 4g carbs, 2g fiber, 2g sugars, and 
<br>1g protein (POINTS&reg; value 0*)... plus, a whole lotta CRUNCH. Have the 
<br>entire bag for 80 cals!
<br>
<br>Jelly Belly Cocktail Classics - As big fans of guilt-free cocktail indulgences, 
<br>these tasty li'l candies caught our eye. The collection includes Margarita, Pi&ntilde;a 
<br>Colada, Peach Bellini, Pomegranate Cosmo, Strawberry Daiquiri, and Mojito 
<br>flavors. (Sounds like it'd pair well with some HG cocktails!) Like most JB 
<br>beans, each one has 4 calories, no fat, and about 1g carbs. Chomp on a 25-
<br>bean serving for 100 calories (POINTS&reg; value 2*). Sweet! P.S. No alcohol in 
<br>these.    
<br> 
<br> 
<br> 
<br> 
<br> Bitty Bites!
<br>
<br>HG Asks YOU! (TV Show Edition!)
<br>Our Wednesday "Ask HG" emails are a time-honored Hungry Girl tradition, 
<br>but we're turning the tables for a couple of weeks -- we want YOU to answer 
<br>Qs for US! We'll be rolling out FUN polls to get your opinions about and 
<br>experiences with items like pizza, comfort food, chocolate, and more! And 
<br>get this: The results may be featured on the upcoming Hungry Girl show on 
<br>Cooking Channel! We're kicking off the TV show polls right now! (We can't 
<br>wait 'til Wednesday.) Click HERE for our first round of Qs... Do it!   
<br>
<br>Get Competitive in the Kitchen!
<br>Looking for a way to feed your creative side and maybe win some prizes? 
<br>Check out these food-based competitions! Vlasic is asking pickle 
<br>chewers, "What Does a Vlasic Do for You?" Just tell 'em your favorite Vlasic 
<br>pickle and how you use it to zazzle up food; snap a photo of your pickle dish, 
<br>and enter to win up to $1,000! (Ends 8/31/10.) If pickles aren't your bag, try 
<br>your hand at the Chicken of the Sea SuperCook Contest. Enter an original 
<br>recipe that uses a COTS product for a shot at the grand prize of $10,000! 
<br>Runners-up will score big bucks, too. (Ends 8/15/10.) Happy crunching and 
<br>cooking!

<br>
<br>  Stuff You Didn't Know You Needed!
<br>
<br>It's been a long time since we last featured some fun "food-y" items that 
<br>can't be chewed. Look what we found...
<br>
<br>Nacho Lip Balm - For anyone who's ever wanted to slather hot cheese on his 
<br>or her mouth. (Don't act like it has never crossed your mind!) We're 
<br>intrigued by this pseudo-cheese find...
<br>
<br>Mini Cupcake Maker - Pop some batter into this thing (may we suggest some 
<br>recipes?), and you'll have sweet treats in five minutes!
<br>
<br>KOKO Jenn Insulated Lunch Bag, Hot Pink - Not only is this fashionable lunch 
<br>tote super cute and a fabulous shade of pink (AWESOME), but it also comes 
<br>with an intensely handy plastic fork-and-spoon set. Love. It.
<br>  
<br> 
<br> 
<br> 
<br> 
<br> The Buzz...
<br>
<br>Who would've expected a sub chain called Blimpie to roll out a reduced-
<br>calorie lineup? Not us! Yet, here it is: The Lighter Stuff menu. Participating 
<br>locations are serving up the line's six items, each with 370 cals and 6g fat or 
<br>fewer. The Asian Teriyaki Chicken Sub sounds especially gooood! ***We 
<br>think this new book about the crazy eating habits of notable humans should 
<br>be called Celebrities Eat the Darndest Things. It's actually titled What the 
<br>Great Ate: A Curious History of Food & Fame, and it's full of crazy facts. 
<br>Ernest Hemingway once ate a porcupine?!?! We've gotta read this...  ***Ever 
<br>dropped a piece of food on the floor and called out, "FIVE-SECOND RULE," 
<br>and then happily popped it into your mouth? A food scientist (um, with too 
<br>much time on his hands) has officially debunked the popular notion. Food is 
<br>NOT necessarily safe from bacteria if grabbed within five seconds... but we're 
<br>pretty sure no one ever REALLY thought that was a fact-based claim anyway. 
<br>***With all the exotic "superfoods" out there, we're excited to see a study 
<br>that suggests simple grapes (red, green, and black) could reduce the risk of 
<br>heart disease and type 2 diabetes. We're not waiting around for proven data; 
<br>we're going to pop some grapes into our faces right now. That's all we've 
<br>got. HG out!
