Some chocolate one-pointers:
•Half a Cocoa Via bar (not too big, but very chocolately without being too sugary -- really satisfies a craving)
•Half a WW JTP Mint Chocolate Crisp -- cut in half diagonally and put in a zip lock bag so you aren't tempted to eat the other half right away.
•Two Miss Merengue chocolate chip merengues or six of the minis -- but they're kind of addictive since they're so sugary

Just thought I would post my new favorite snack..It reminds me of carmel corn but without all of the calories....
"I can't believe it's not Carmel Corn"
.......Only 1 Point......
Buy Orville Redenbachers's SmartPop mini bags of popcorn...(pop as directed)
spray popcorn with I can't believe it's not butter spray
Add 4 packets of splenda; Shake the bag up (add more if desired)
Add 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon; Shake the bag (add more if you desire)
.....it is Sweet, Salty, and Crunchy!!!!..... A great 1 point snack....

one packet of swiss miss sugar free hot chocolate with splenda is 0 points
1/2 of a sugar free fat free western bagel is 1 pt
0 pt raw veggies (carrots, bell peppers, celery, greens, broccolli, cauliflower) with 2 TBL of litehouse ligt salsa ranch dressing is 1 point

You have to get Laughing Cow lite cheese (there is even flavored kind) which is only 1 point a little wedge and try it with rice crackers (NOT rice cakes). You can find rice crackers in either the health food section or the asian food section. Read the labels for the rice crackers because they vary but you should be able to find a box with about 9 crackers per point and they are really good. Cheese and crackers for only two points... yum!

Skermie - The first part of the list is 0 points but after that there is a heading of 1 point snacks and the fruit is listed under that.

This list is great, Thank you.
I just found something new at Meijer, (I know they are not a national but maybe you can find it it your local store.)
"French Twist, Layer of Sweet Puffed Pastry" by Barry's Bakery. They come in four flavors and are only 1 point per twist. Very good with a cup of tea or coffee, nice treat.
I havn't checked it out yet but they have a web page, wwwbarrysbakery.com
