<br>
<br>GIRLS BITE OUT 
<br>
<br>We chewed...now we're telling!   
<br>
<br>
<br>Tasty Eats Soy Jerky, Hot N' Spicy
<br>(1 serving - 0.5 oz.: 45 calories, <1g fat, 125mg sodium, 6g carbs, 1g fiber, 
<br>3g sugars, 4g protein = 1 Point)
<br>
<br>What It Is: Jerky, made of soy.
<br>
<br>What We Think of It:  We love jerky, so we 're always open to try new jerky-
<br>related products -- even ones made of soy.  We were more than pleasantly 
<br>surprised when we sampled Tasty Eats Soy Jerky.  It's sweet and yummy 
<br>and it has a little kick to it, but it's definitely NOT "hot".  It's perfect!  Not 
<br>quite as dry as regular beef or turkey jerky, this stuff is satisfying, awesome, 
<br>and low in fat and calories.  And, since it's not made of meat, you don't ever 
<br>have to consider that your little leathery snack was once a living, breathing 
<br>creature, 'cuz it wasn't. Find this stuff online, at Whole Foods, and at other 
<br>natural foods stores.

<br>
<br>Overall Score: We'd give the Hot N' Spicy flavor a 10.  The Teriyaki and 
<br>Ginger flavors are great, too.  But the chicken-flavored ones (low-
<br>carb/unsweetened) are icky and scary.  This is a great on-the-go snack!
<br>
<br>   
<br>
<br>Kellogg’s Special K Protein Meal Bars & Snack Bars
<br>(*Meal Bars - 45g: 190 calories, 5-6g fat, 2g fiber = 4 Points)
<br>(*Snack Bars - 26g:  110 calories, 3-3.5g fat, 0-1g fiber = 2-3 Points)
<br>
<br>*nutritionals vary among flavors
<br>
<br>What They Are:  A line of larger bars, called Meal Bars, and a line of smaller 
<br>bars, called Snack Bars.
<br>
<br>What We Think of 'Em: Yikes!  Special K, we love you.  And we REALLY love 
<br>your Snack Bites, but these new bars really miss the mark.  The 190-calorie 
<br>meal bars aren't large enough to be an actual meal substitute.  They're also 
<br>way too sweet, crumbly, and with that dry low-carb flavor (even though they 
<br>aren't low-carb), these bars are just not good.  There's not a flavor in the 
<br>bunch we like.  The snack bars taste a bit better, but are basically chewy 
<br>candy bars (very tiny ones!) that we feel aren't worth the 110- calorie price 
<br>tag they come with.  Don't get us wrong, 110 calories isn't a lot for a snack, 
<br>it's just that these things are so tiny they're simply not worth it. And the fact 
<br>that they're trying to pass themselves off as "healthy" disturbs us even 
<br>more.  We predict a VERY sad, short life for these bars.
<br>
<br>Overall Score:  3.  Special K...we still love you, but we will never EVER 
<br>partake in these items again.
<br>
<br>   
<br>  
<br>Wish-Bone Salad Spritzers
<br>(10 sprays: 10 calories, 1g fat, 95-130mg sodium, 1g carbs, 0g fiber, 1g 
<br>sugars, 0g protein = 0 Points)
<br>
<br>What They Are: Little bottles of low-cal, spray-on salad dressing in three 
<br>flavors -- Red Wine Mist Cabernet Vinaigrette, Balsamic Breeze Vinaigrette, 
<br>and Italian Vinaigrette.  10 sprays for 10 calories.  Woohoo!
<br>
<br>What We Think of 'Em:  No gimmicks here.  What you see is what you get, 
<br>peeps.  Each generous 10-spray serving packs in tons of flavor and a lot of 
<br>dressing -- for just 10 measly calories.  Spray-on salad dressing is a no-
<br>brainer.  Who needs all the extra glop smothering your defenseless lettuce, 
<br>anyway?  Wish-Bone, you ROCK, bigtime!  HUGETIME.  All of the flavors are 
<br>great, but we like the Italian Vinaigrette the most. We hear there are new 
<br>flavors on the way, and we can't wait.  
<br>
<br>Overall Score: 10. 10 sprays for 10 calories?!  It's INSANE!
<br>
<br>  
<br> 
<br>Blue Diamond Almond Breeze, Unsweetened Chocolate
<br>(8 oz.: 45 calories, 3.5g fat, 180mg sodium, 3g carbs, 1g fiber, 0g sugars, 2g 
<br>protein = 1 Point) 
<br> 
<br>What It Is: Unsweetened non-dairy chocolate milk made from almonds?!
<br>
<br>What We Think of It:  We were so excited to see chocolate (or any!) milk 
<br>that has just 45 calories per 8 ounces that it could taste like motor oil and 
<br>we'd be excited.  The good news is, it DOESN'T taste like motor oil.  The bad 
<br>news is, it doesn't taste good straight from the container.  We added Splenda 
<br>to it, which made it pretty good, but this milk is definitely best-suited for 
<br>fancy low-cal lattes and things of that nature.  In fact, we made some pretty 
<br>friggin' INSANE 25-calorie chocolate lattes with this stuff and now we're 
<br>hooked.  We can't wait to try the other flavors.
<br>
<br>Overall Score:  9. But remember, don't drink it straight.  It's definitely more 
<br>of an ingredient than a beverage.
