ThinSlim Foods: Too Good To Be True?

Recently I saw a Facebook advertisement for a company called ThinSlim Foods. After browsing their products online and looking at their nutritional information, I fell in love with the concept. After looking at reviews, it seems like not only are their products low calorie, but they're really delicious, too!
However, for a product to be this low calorie AND supposedly really good, I can't help but remain skeptical. Companies such as Arctic Zero and Quest have been called into question before over their caloric counts, could this just be a newer company that has yet to have such claims filed against them?
As someone maintaining their weight, going over calories daily can begin to add up since I don't have a deficit to even anything out. I was wondering if anyone here has any experiences with these products or heard of them? Have you experienced any weight gain from them? Or do they seem legitimate?
Thanks!!!

    How do you know those reviews are real ? Did you google search the images ?

    Yeah, I never read reviews from the website so I went to Google and was surprised to see so many. But I still have a hard time believing they're hardly that many calories :/ I don't know whether or not to trust them haha

    The old adage "if it looks to good to be true, it probably is" applies to few things more than weight loss products. Trust your instincts.

    I saw there bagels are 60 calories yet surprisingly big and good. Same with their 45 calorie muffins. I have been so tempted to try but am skeptical they are really THAT low calorie.

    If you're that interested, give it a try.
    You'll know soon enough if the calorie counts are false.
