Anyone know what the points value may be? I know that the bottle for the "Diet" flavor said sugar free. I'm not sure if that would be considered a "0" point value or not. I've tried looking it up without success.

I have NO IDEA what a diet snowball is! I know that up north here, a snowball is a type of dessert/candy made with marshmallows, nuts, maraschino cherries, coconut and chocolate! So I don't know what bottle you are referring to!
BUT, there has to be a nutritional label for this somewhere, either on the bottle (?) or the box that a number of bottles come in (?) if they come in, say, a 6-pack like diet coke. Use your points finder (calories/fat/fiber) with this info.
But I'm STUMPED!!!

Hi there! Me again!
I found this for something called Diet Snowball Syrup -- it is for some sort of syrup that you can make with Equal instead of sugar. It is a home recipe, BUT it has the nutritional value in the upper righthand corner. I would be comfortable using this because I'll bet dollars to snowballs (hahahaha) that the components are essentially the same...

Thanks for the info Kira! The "snowball" we do here in Baltimore, is basically just a snow cone. It's shaved ice, with syrup on it. Like I said, the Diet Flavor labels said Sugar Free, but I think I'll ask to see the bottle the next time we go. My lil guy LOVES snowballs, so I am often at the stand, we'll see how often I can enjoy one myself. I'll follow-up after my next trip to the stand! THANKS AGAIN!

Up here, in the Great White North, ALL snowballs are diet -- unless you make them from yellow snow! Hahaha!
