Newton’s Fruit Thins review

 
Newtons Fruit Thins…yum!
Have you seen these?  Tried ‘em?   I received a bag of  Newton Fruit Thins in the mail to try and saved them for “girls night in” Tuesday night (so they could help me in my own little “taste test”). 
I was in love at first bite!  Seriously.  One of the ladies said “tastes like you wish the Happy Meal cookies tasted”. 
I worried “what if I don’t like them”?   My mother always quoted to me “better to have a good name that fine riches”… so I couldn’t in good conscience endorse something I didn’t absolutely love.  I’m happy to say my fears vanished at first bite!
There are other flavors too, but the bag I received was the Cranberry Citrus Oat Fruit thins.  You could taste a hint of citrus, and see actual dried cranberries in it.  It’s not a sickening-syrup-sweet cookie (which I appreciate!)  Very crisp and tastes refreshing.  Three cookies equal 140 calories and 8 grams of whole grains.
I was going to save the rest of the cookies to have a “party” with my nieces and nephew and “use” them to do another taste test from a kid’s perspective but they were so good, I actually ate the rest!  (sorry kids!)
I would definitely buy these again.  The are that good!  Don’t take my word for it though, get your own bag. 

*I received a free product from One2One Network for review purposes.  I did not receive any form of compensation from the company.  All opinions are my own and not influenced in any way.  I would not endorse any product or idea that I do not believe in and have tried myself.

Sobering Sugar Facts

Someone sent these pics in an email to my hubby, who in turn sent them to me (being that I'm all "count-those-carbs-cut-that-sugar of late)  So I have no idea where they originated.  Looking at these common items in light of how many sugar cubes they equate to, is... well, sobering to say the least!   I'll just let the pics speak for themselves...

(Bananas are one of my faves, but really???!)

Tempted to make your next meal just water?   I am.  Ok, not really.
