<p>Ok, I wrote about <a target="_blank" href="http://www.waldenfarms.com/cfdressings.htm">these</a> a while ago. But, when I wrote the post I had just bought the salad dressing but hadn&#8217;t tried them yet.</p>
<p>Well I have tried both the Honey Mustard and Raspberry Vinagrette. They are ZERO Calories, ZERO Fat!  I really like them. They are pretty good. But what do you expect for a 2 tbsp serving size and zero points, not but really they are good.  I am not too picky about my dressing, and I don&#8217;t use very much so its great for me. I would rather spend 2 points on cheese, and then use this dressing for 0 Points.  They also make a great 0 point salad if you only use veggies, great for those days when you run out of points.</p>
<p>I can find them at my normal grocery store (small local chain) in the salad dressing isle, so you should be able to find them anywhere.</p>
<p>Has anyone else tried them? What do you think? </p>

<p>Well <a href="http://weightwatchen.com)">Roni</a>, just blogged about this new Popcorn from <a href="http://orville.com">Orville Redenbacher</a> that looks fabulous. It has zero artificial colors, flavors or preservatives&#8230;it tastes great naturally! And it comes in 3 flavors: Simply Salted, Buttery Garlic and Buttery Salt &amp; Cracked Pepper (and yes there is a low fat version!) I can&#8217;t wait to get some at the grocery store.</p>
<p> Yummo!</p>

<p> Anywho&#8230;.I was at the store last night and saw these&#8230;Zero calorie, Zero fat,  zero point salad dressings for 2 tbsp.  I&#8217;m not sure what is in them, and haven&#8217;t tried it yet, but I got the Honey Mustard variety. I can&#8217;t wait to try it.</p>
<p>Anyone out there had these? Am I all excited for nothing? Which flavor is your favorite?</p>

<p>I Found it, I found it, I found it. I finally found frozen yogurt in my town.  It&#8217;s called YoCream, and its by Dannon.  Granted its at a gas station downtown, but still its yogurt, and its wonderful. They only have chocolate and vanilla where I live, but I sooooo love it. I haven&#8217;t had frozen yogurt in so long because there is NO other place in town you can get it.  It has ZERO fat, and about 100 calories per half cup.  So I figure my small swirl cup has about 3 points in it. </p>
<p>You can find the nutritional info here:  <a href="http://www.yocream.com/nutritionals.php">http://www.yocream.com/nutritionals.php</a></p>
<p>I just had to share!  I&#8217;ve had it twice since I &#8220;discovered&#8221; it last Friday.  Both times I went with friends who thought I was absolutely bonkers because I was in heaven while eating it. There&#8217;s just something about soft serve frozen yogurt that you can&#8217;t replicate. </p>
<p> Has anybody else ran into this stuff? What flavors are your favorite?</p>

There was something about the texture of them that I just couldn&#8217;t stomach. I had been warned about their odor, and rinsed them and then boiled for a few minutes, but I just couldn&#8217;t handle their texture. I couldn&#8217;t even finish my dinner.</p>
<p>I think they are a great idea, and I am glad I tried them. I think everyone should give them a try because their taste was great, and its such an excellent alternative to noodles, their Nutritional Info is amazing&#8230; I just couldn&#8217;t hack it.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Good Morning Everyone, Well I am recouperated from my &#8220;ick&#8221; on Friday, and my super busy weekend and ready to go for yet another work week <img src='http://blogs.weightwatchen.com/laceyq/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>I did pretty good on the eating front. Had a hamburger and fries on Friday night, Ihadn&#8217;t eaten hardly anything at all that day and boy was the burger and fries tasty. I don&#8217;t even remember the last time I had any fast food other than a salad. Oh, Saturday I tried McDonalds southwest Chicken Salad, and Sunday I tried Jack In the box&#8217;s southwest chicken salad. </p>
<p>I think overall the salads were very comparable. I liked the dressing of McDonalds better, and it was healthier. But I liked how Jack in the box put the chicken in a separate container so that I could put it on my salad myself. In both cases I only used about 1/3 - 1/2 of the packet of dressing and about half of the &#8220;corn twigs&#8221; or whatever they are called. </p>
<p>So the overall winner, IMO, was McDonalds :0  I&#8217;ll definately be having that salad again!</p>
<p>Menus for Friday through Sunday below. Not too bad, and got my hamburger and fries fix out of the way.</p>

<p align="left">My other current favorite new food is the Dulce de Leche pudding cup for 1 point also.  I can&#8217;t find an image, but its incredible if you can find it.  I love caramel and vanilla, and this is almost as good as a ice cream sundae for me.  DBF thinks it tastes funny, but I&#8217;m OK with that because I know he won&#8217;t eat mine <img src='http://blogs.weightwatchen.com/laceyq/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
