WW Food and Point Issues - favorite grocery store items

:lol: I don't know if a list already exists, but is there a list somewhere where grocery store prepared foods are listed with points?

If there isn't - what is everyone's favorite food items to buy at the grocery store?

I like the 2% Kraft sliced cheese (and shredded cheeses that are 2% too) - I gave up on the fat free ones. Just didn't like the taste.

I love Boco burgers. (Put them on 2 slice/1 point bread, with mustard, and some pickle stackers - yum!).

Look forward to hearing from everyone!

Thanks and happy pointing!

I just found these... and i love them... the 2% Mozzarella slices.. wow they are incredible!

also, lauras lean ground beef.. 4pts for 1/4lb :) makes a yummy burger on a 1pt bun!

For those of you who don't mind NutraSweet, I think this is fairly new, but I purchased the Smuckers brand Light/Sugar Free Red Raspberry Preserves and it is very good (I think they have other flavors too).

It is for 1 Tbsp:
10 calories; 0 g Fat; 0 g Fiber

Does anyone know any one point English Muffins?

Thanks!

Cheree

In NY we can buy King Kullen brand or American Choice brand which are both one point English Muffins. I like them with a poached egg on one half and I Can't Believe It's NOt Butter Lite
on the other half. I hope you can find some where you live.;)

I love the skinny cow ice cream sandwiches. They are only 2 points, but they don't taste artificial. They remind me of the ones I used to eat when I was a kid; where the cookie part sticks to your fingers. Yum!!!

Cheree - I know country kitchen has an english muffin for 1pt (or is it 2? - no I believe its just 1pt for the whole thing). Its not bad - but I don't go crazy looking for them. They don't have the nooks and crannies like Thomas' does! They are in a clear package and they are standing up (like bagels) the label is blue. Good luck!

Oh yeah - I forgot to add my grocery store list:

string cheese - 2-3pts each
fat free chocolate pudding - 2pts (and it counts as milk too!)
2% cheese slices (for grilled cheese!)
brummel and brown margarine - YUM!
snackwell chocolate chip cookies (mini)

There are more - but I am drawing a blank!

Tara :D

Hello! :wave:

I am currently working on sprucing up the WW forums along with Jennifer and Suzanne and I am trying to put together a grocery store points list that will be posted here- Cheree, you must have read my mind ;)

I like the list you have started so if you could keep your suggestions on grocery store foods coming I can add them to the list for the forum.

Thanks for your help everyone! :)

Oh ya...here are a few of my favorites....Laughing cow cheese (light), Jello fat free chocolate puddings, lower salt Triscuits, Source brand sugar free - fat free yogurt (1 pt per serving!), Renee's Naturally light salad dressings....

There is currently a web site that has many food points listed, as well as fast food places not listed in the Dining Out companion. The website is www.dwlz.com. I have found this site very useful when planning to eat. I have also purchased thw new Weight Watchers bread. The wheat is very good and two slices for one point. I am starting Weight Watchers again after taking a pause for medical reasons. I hope that this helps.

Yeah, loves dotti's list - the only problem is I can't most of those things up here in Canada.....hmmm...maybe I can do some research up here and combine it with you American chicks down there and we can get a nice cross section going! :D

Do any of you get the "Presiden't Choice" line of products in the U.S.?

My favorite things......and I buy every week.
WW whole wheat bread - 2 pcs 1 point
Jello Light jello cups - 7 calories per cup.
All Bran Cereal Bars - 2 pnts each
Raisin Bran cereal bars - 2 pnts each
SOURCE yogurt - 1 point per serving
Melba toast (One pack of 8 is 2 pnts)
Any of the Healthy low fat soups out there.....Campbells, Primo - most are 3-4 points for the whole can and they are very filling
Any of the BLUE president's choice healthy line - for those canadians out there. The cereals are incredible!! (1-2 points per serving) The dinners are delicious (Between 3 - 5 points) and the crackers are 1 point per serving
Meringue nests - 1 point each, they are big and feel like I am eating a big cookie!
Calorie reduced hot chocolate - 1 point per pack
NO FRILL low fat bran muffins - 2 points each and so filling!
I make a lot of salads and buy alot of fruit.

That was a really great site... thanks for the info ;)

Watch out for the Skinny Cow ice cream sandwiches. If you purchase the 'new' packaged ones, they are now 3 points instead of 2. The company must have changed some of the ingredients.

The No Pudge ice cream products are really good. Their Giant Strawberry Shortcake bars and Cookies and Creme cones are 2 pts each and taste like real ice cream. Breyer's CalSmart ice cream is sweetened with Splenda and is only 1 pt for a half cup. I've only had the Vanilla flavor, which is like their vanilla bean. It's really good. I like the 100-calorie packs (2 pts) and Kashi cereal bars (2 pts).

Blue BUnny Fudge Bars - Only 1 point and they taste good!
Honey wheat bread - 1 pt per slice
frozen veggies - free!
