I don’t work for Fiber One, but I tend to try all their foods in an attempt to lower my WW point intake. I’m also not a big fan of yogurt, but I know it’s a healthy, stick-to-you snack. So I tried the new Fiber One yogurt.Actually, I bought two six-packs and let them go bad in my fridge. So I threw them away. And bought another six-pack, vowing to eat them, even if they did taste like yogurt.
The first time I tried the peach-flavored yogurt, I was actually feeding it to Photobaby. It was at that point that I realized two things: first, I was an idiot for wasting two packs of yogurts, and second, I didn’t want to share it with Photobaby!
Fiber One yogurt is creamy and light and tasty. I actually thought as I was eating it, “This is almost like a dessert.” Coming from someone who can eat half a pan of brownies in one sitting, that’s pretty high praise.
Each little container has just 1 point, or for those of you not counting points, 80 calories, no fat and 5 grams of fiber. It comes in strawberry, peach (yum!), vanilla and key lime pie flavors.
And just to prove that I’m not in Fiber One’s pocket, I’ll tell you that they have a new product I will be avoiding: toaster pastries. Or, if you’d like, fake Pop Tarts.
I may have mentioned before that I’m not allowed to buy Pop Tarts. I’ve banned myself from doing so, because it never fails to result in a guilty binge, where I eat Pop Tart after Pop Tart after…well, you get the point. No pun intended, although I will tell you that regular, delicious, wonderful Pop Tarts are more than 4 points EACH.
Given my outrageous addiction to Pop Tarts, I was cautiously excited to learn Fiber One was making a high fiber version of this life-enhancing food. But then. Then I read that the FO version still has 3 points EACH. And then my co-worker tried them and said they’re so not worth it that she ended up throwing hers away after just a couple bites.
So, to sum it up: Fiber One yogurt is good. Fiber One toaster pastries are bad. And oh yeah – my name is Photoqueen, and I’m in love with – I mean, addicted to – Pop Tarts.
