This is the last of the Country Choice Organic goodies I tried out. When I saw the flavor “Ginger Lemon,” I was skeptical as to how the combination would taste like. I am all for using ginger in cooking, and have been known to drink ginger tea, but ginger in cookies? Well, it turns out that the flavor is amazingly well paired up. The ginger taste is faint, the lemon is tart, the creme is sweet, put them all together, and it creates a very complex and unique flavor. The cookies (minus) the frosting, is crisp and has a light lemon flavor to it as well. The cream frosting in the middle is what stands out in these sandwich cremes. I adore them. Better than any sandwich cookies I’ve had so far. One serving in 2 cookies which has 130 calories, 3 WW, 5 grams of fat (0.5 saturated), no cholesterol, 120 milligram of sodium, >1 gram of fiber, 11 grams of sugar, and 1 gram of protein. These are delicious when you enjoy it with tea. I like the cute little imprint on the sandwiches which says “Country Choice Organic.” When you are serving these to some friends, at least they know you are serving them some good quality snacks.

I stopped by Jamba Juice the other day and got another cup of their yummy organic slow cooked oats. Funny that I gravitate towards my oats even when I am out and about. Guess what I found out? I saw the girl in the kitchen throwing away an empty oat container and the brand they use is Country Choice Organic Steel cut oats. I don’t know if that is true for all Jamba Juice, but it was true for my particular store. I recently got a chance to try out 3 varieties of oatmeal from Country Choice Organics:
Healthy eating is a habit that takes time to develop so start them young. I myself was never self conscious of my eating habits until after college. I wished my parents could have guided me into health and fitness when I was younger. The 
These are truely “Oatmeal-on-the-run.” When I am in a pinch for time, but still craving some morning oats, these oatmeal bars really does the trick. Very dense and similar to a clif bar, but these are packed with oats. How can you go wrong with apple cinnamon flavor? I think apples and cinnamon are meant to be eaten together by mother nature. Perfect combination in everyway. The densness of the bar kept me fueled with no problem. The bar itself is very moist and chewy. Taste really great when you nuke it for 30 seconds in the microwave. When I’m in a hurry in the morning, I grab one of these along with a banana and I’m good to go. Each oatmeal square is 220 calories, 4 WW, 3 grams of fat (0.5 gram saturated and no trans fat), zero cholesterol, 180 milligram of sodium, 40 grams of carbohydrates, 4 grams of dietary fiber, 16 grams of sugar, and 5 grams of protein.

After my gym workouts, I usually find myself stopping by Fresh & Easy just to pick up something quick and easy to whip up at home. Sometimes I just stop by just to browse to see what’s new. On my latest browsing trip, F&E had their whole line of hummus on sale for $1.50 each. They had many interesting flavors, but since they do not have preservatives of any kind, the life of these are not long (approx. 1 week). I picked up the most enticing flavor, Lemon Cilantro. I remember me loving the Jalapeno Cilantro flavor hummus from Trader Joe’s, so I thought I should give another cilantro flavor hummus a try. The lemon flavor was just a hint, and the cilantro flavor was not as strong as the TJ one, but the consistency of the 
The best thing about these Trader Joe’s hard pretzel sticks is that they are made with 100% whole wheat. 100% whole wheat pretzels are hard to come by, so I had to pick these up. These whole wheat pretzel sticks are not as addictive as my usual pretzel slims, but I’m not complaining. Makes it that much easier to stop at a few sticks. These pretzel sticks are totally dippable too. I like to dip these in a little nutella or peanut butter. Amazingly satisfying. 100% whole wheat does make me fuller longer than the enriched flour pretzel slims. The size of each stick is not too shabby either. It’s like the size of my index finger, both in length and width. One serving (about 10 sticks) is 110 calories, 2 WW, 1 gram of fat, zero cholesterol, 400 milligram of sodium, 22 grams of carbohydrates, 3 grams of fiber, <1 gram of sugar, and 3 grams of protein. These do a great job to keep my hunger at bay because these are 100% whole wheat.
