They are only 70 calories each (1 Weight Watcher Points+) and I eat them with 4 saltine crackers, which is the perfect ratio of cream to crunch. I would also recommend kumquats and pomegranate arils in the produce section, along with the Reduced Guilt Spinach & Kale Dip as a veggie dipper and the Reduced Guilt Guac with the Reduced Guilt Tortilla Chips. I have tried other baked tortilla chips, but these are by far my favorite. The Egg White Salad is fantastic, and even a whole tub of the stuff is only 3 Weight Watchers Points+. I also like the Crunchy Black & White Rice Rolls and the Crispy Juju Mandarin Orange Slices.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05462813098865184388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8233184155385734517.post-43843987078882144272014-01-16T11:53:51.098-05:002014-01-16T11:53:51.098-05:00I like their Inner Peas as a snack.

However, they are very good, so I strongly advise taking a serving and putting it in a bowl and putting the bag away. :-) Their fruit strips are nice to have on hand too, and are just 50 calories each.Renehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10832643923158222775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8233184155385734517.post-39781232039716303382014-01-16T11:29:42.316-05:002014-01-16T11:29:42.316-05:00Maybe I should try the Trader Joe's snap peas ...Maybe I should try the Trader Joe's snap peas again. I LOVE sugar snap peas, but when I tried Trader Joe's a few years ago, they were too mature when they were picked, so the pods were stringy and the peas inside were almost pasty. Plus they tasted like bleach. I know it's common to treat some veggies (like baby carrots) with chlorine to discourage microbial growth, and I am not really concerned about the safety of that, but I do not want to be able to taste the treatment.<br /><br />Maybe Trader Joe's has cleared up those issues. You have me ready to give their snap peas a second chance.Poppy Crockerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06511594971890413159noreply@blogger.com
