Re: Annie/Wasabi Pea nutri-info

[Guest guest]

I looked them up on healthclub.com, ann--

Here's the info for 1/4 cup of them:

119 calories

3 grams fat

1 gram saturated fat

0 grams monounsaturated fat

0 cholesterol

240 mg. sodium

19 total carbs

..5 g fiber

2 g sugar

4 g protein

0 calcium

27 calories from fat, or 23 percent

76 calories from carbs, or 64 perent

16 protein calories, or 13 percent

0 alcohols.

Does this sound like an okay thing once in a while with a drink? I guess I

could think of

worse things. Problem is, it IS difficult to stop with just a few . . . . I

lose control with

these goody thingies, so I shouldn't eat any. Though, I AM teaching myself some

self

control with low fat Tostito's tortilla chips. I actually am able to eat just

one serving of

those most of the time, now.
