Yum, I have the Crystal Light 15cal popscicles. They're good for when I just have the munchies and need something to hold me over, but they're practically flavorless, in my opinion, lol.
I have had them at my Grandmother's house before, but I can't seem to find them anywhere. I don't think I would get them, though, because if I start to like something I might eat too much of it. 16 calories can add up if you eat a ton of them. I really like chips so I tried to eat some healthy ones, but I couldn't just have one serving. So I stopped getting them.
I can be bad when it comes to certain treats. It's just best I stay away from even the low calorie verisions. Maybe one day when I am maintaining my weight...

Thanks mkendrick!
I try to avoid walmart until I have a monster list! lol... just dread going there but am planning to today if I get this final done at a decent time. I'll have to take a look.
Haha, me = poor college kid who lives 2 minutes away from Walmart. I spend a lot of time there...
But yea, there's a whole section of popsicles that are low calorie. Like I said, I tried the Crystal Light ones, there were other fruit flavors, and then some higher cal ones (50-100cals) and I know I saw some products from this brand.
If you look at the calories most popsicles are actually fairly low in calories. I like to keep just your plain jane break in half ones in my freezer during the summer. I don't think a half is anymore then 30 calories; they are full of flavor and cheap! They don't taste anything like creamcicle though, haha.
I also love rockets! Not the big ones, but the smaller ones (blue, white, red) - they are 35 calories each I think. Loved those since I was a kid.
I have two big problems with a lot of these "fancy low calorie" foods. The first one is 95% of the time we can not get them in Canada. The second is they usually charge you double compared to similar full calorie product. Depending on the calorie difference, I usually opt for saving money. I have gotten to the point where saving $2 is more important then saving 15 calories, lol. Call me cheap I guess?
