Girl Scout to add 100-calorie packs of cookies
Categories: Diet & Weight Loss, Nutrition & Supplements
I have a weakness for Girl Scout Cookies. The vanilla ones are my favourite, followed closely by those delicious thin mints. Sadly, I can't buy any because I know that I'll somehow convince myself that eating a whole box--or more!--in one sitting is a good idea.
But this year, there's a way you can support the cause and stick to your diet--Girl Scouts will start carrying 100-calorie packs of Cinna-spin cookies. I'm a little disapointed that they won't have diet-friendly versions of thin mints, but Fitsugar has a great idea for those -- freeze them so you're not tempted to eat them all at once.

I hope the calorie reduction in the girl Scout cookies is not just due to reduction in portions and instead due to the use of splenda and fat substitutes. So many products today advertise fewer calories and it is just due to reduction of the portion size.

I'd rather have the smaller portion size of something REAL than a smaller portion size with processed chemicals like artificial sweetners because the body knows how to use all those real things. Also, with normal ingredients, you're satisfied with less.
