    As long as you have them in moderation , I haven't purchase them in a while but they are good when you are craving something sweet. But they are not meal replacement .

    Yes, eat them once in a while and they're fine. Don't worry about some people's alarmism in here. They fear food because it will rot out their insides.

    Also, thanks for reminding me. I forgot I had a box of the yogurt pretzels in my cupboard. Eating one tonight along with my B&Js ice cream.

    I'll tell you what they are.... a waste of money. You'll be so much better off buying the items and pre portioning them yourself. You'll get so much more. :)

    well, why not make a delicious trail mix for yourself with (roasted but unsalted) nuts, raisins and other goodies? Unless you have a sweet tooth for said 100 calories items, you're better off just making a nice snack for yourself. You get to eat more, and healthier and in alot of cases, cheaper :)

    Years ago, I would buy them, but they're just processed junk in a smaller package. Since I discovered I am gluten intolerant over a year ago, I do not buy them since they all have wheat in them.

    1 oreo = 50 kcals.
    1 oreo "snack pack" = 100 kcals.

    I'd rather just eat 2 real oreos if that's what I'm craving.

    i agree with the idea of buying the big boxes and pre-portioning them yourself but also make sure you compare nutrition labels. There are a select few of these items that do actually have a slightly different recipe (though that is generally posted on the box somewhere obvious). Kind of like reduced fat cheez-its. Just make sure you read how many calories in a serving and all that!!
