    I read recently that you really have to be careful of these. They are typically fried in coconut oil and can be really high in fat.

    I don't understand how these can be grouped together, or in the same article.

    While some of the snacks seem good.
    Some are 50% or more sugar.

    Pepperment patty (caloriecount.com) - 165 calories (109 calories from sugar 27.9 calories from fat)
    Kudos bar - 100 calories (36 calories from sugar 27calories from fat)
    Danon light and fit yogurt - 60 calories - 32 calories from sugar
    Oreo thin crisps - 100 calories (50 calories are sugar and fat)

    Marketing people are getting creative. Smaller portions of the same bad stuff.

    I'm just pointing thse out, because I didn't realize it myself after munching on those 100 cal Oreo snacks.

    There is nothing wrong with Coconut Oil...................It is actually more of a healthy fat than olive oil.

    Coconut Oil is the healthiest oil on Earth:
    If there was an oil you could use for your daily cooking needs that helped protect you from heart disease, cancer, and other degenerative conditions, improved your digestion, strengthened your immune system, and helped you lose excess weight, would you be interested? This is what coconut oil can do for you.

    What Coconut Oil DOES NOT Do:

    Does not increase blood cholesterol level.
    Does not promote platelet stickiness or blood clot formation.
    Does not contribute to atherosclerosis or heart disease.
    Does not contribute to weight problems.

    What Coconut Oil DOES Do:

    Reduces risk of atherosclerosis and related illnesses.
    Reduces risk of cancer and other degenerative conditions.
    Helps prevent bacterial, viral, and fungal (including yeast) infections.
    Supports immune system function.
    Helps control diabetes.
    Provides an immediate source of energy.
    Supports healthy metabolic function.
    Improves digestion and nutrient absorption.
    Supplies important nutrients necessary for good health.
    Supplies fewer calories than other fats.
    Promotes weight loss.
    Helps prevent osteoporosis.
    Has a mild delicate flavor.
    Is highly resistant to spoilage (long shelf life).
    Is heat resistant (the healthiest oil for cooking).
    Helps keep skin soft and smooth.
    Helps prevent premature aging and wrinkling of the skin.
    Helps protect against skin cancer and other blemishes.
    Functions as a protective antioxidant."

    Yep, you are correct................

    Food manufacturers, and the government are getting more creative of keeping the bad stuff on everyone's grocery list...........

    That is why if it doesn't come from the earth or have a mother, I no longer eat it. so anything I put in my mouth has to be grown.

    I like the Blueberry and Strawberry bars! Perfect for a morning OR afternoon snack attack.

    because the list is for fun yummy ideas on low cal snacks, they don't have to be nutritious. that is how they can be grouped together.:tongue:

    Great List! When I snack, I try to incorporate a mixture of carbs, fats, and proteins as well as balance out what I have had at meals.
