<br>
<br>Happy Mushroom Month...Win $5,000!!!!
<br>
<br>If you read your HG emails carefully, you already know that it's National 
<br>Mushroom Month (woohoo!). To help celebrate, the Mushroom Council (yep, 
<br>it really exists) is giving $5,000 to the winner of their "Make It With 
<br>Mushrooms" contest. If you're a pro with a portabella or know your way 
<br>around a shiitake, think about entering. If you haven't cooked with these 
<br>squishy veggies before, give 'em a whirl -- they're low in calories, free of fat, 
<br>and an excellent source of nutrients including several B vitamins, copper, 
<br>potassium, and the antioxidant selenium. Mushrooms are our spongy friends! 
<br>Good luck...

<br>Look...Books! 
<br> 
<br>The Amazing Mackerel Pudding Plan: Classic Diet Recipe Cards from the 
<br>1970s - Wow, we love this book! It's jam-packed with hysterically funny retro 
<br>recipes from Weight Watchers. In need of a recipe for "Surprise Chowder" 
<br>or "Fish Balls"? You're in luck. Even funnier than the names on the cards are 
<br>the hideous pictures (FYI, we own a set of the original cards here at the HG 
<br>HQ). 
<br>
<br>The Healthiest Kid in the Neighborhood - The tagline for this book is "Dr. 
<br>Sears's Ten Ways to Get Your Family on the Right Nutritional Track." Are 
<br>your kids' eating habits out of control? With healthy recipes, tips and an easy-
<br>to-follow eating plan, this book may be just what your family needs.
<br>
<br>Mindless Eating - Mindless Eating: Why We Eat More Than We Think is a real 
<br>eye-opener. It'll help you figure out why you overeat without realizing it and 
<br>how to change dangerous eating habits. And remember, no snacking while 
<br>you read it...

<br>Lil'FIJI - No, Lil'FIJI isn't a new rapper; it's a portable, 11-oz. version of FIJI 
<br>Water that actually fits into cup holders. Weeeee!
<br>  
<br> 
<br>The Buzz...
<br>
<br>Breaking (and very exciting) news from the world of CocoaVia. Next month, 
<br>they'll release a line of MILK CHOCOLATE snacks that have the same level of 
<br>flavanols (heart healthy compounds) as the dark chocolate ones. Keep 
<br>checking cocoavia.com for details and info. ***We've been warning you 
<br>about our suspicions that the nutritional info on Trader Joe's Banana CRISPS 
<br>is off. According to test results from two independent labs, these supposed 
<br>40-calorie, 1g-of-fat snacks were found to have about FOUR times the 
<br>calories and SIX times the fat as the package states! This information was 
<br>sent to us by subscribers, along with the lab results. We're just reporting the 
<br>info here, people. ***The results of two new studies show that mandarin 
<br>oranges may be good for your liver. Scientists believe that carotenoids 
<br>(vitamin A compounds in oranges) are responsible. ***TV Land, that groovy 
<br>network crammed with classic TV shows, wants you to pledge to eat dinner 
<br>with your family on September 25th. To find out more about Family Day, 
<br>click here. That's all we've got. HG out!
