Question Old point recipes for new points plan?

Hi Ladies,

I noticed that most if not all of the recipes here are calculated for the old points system.

How do you convert it into the new points system when the protien/fat/carb/fiber info is not listed.... are y'all just winging it? LOL

Also, have you noticed that the WW product packaging is not updated yet for the new points system? My DH bought some WW (skinny cow like) ice cream sandwiches and thought wow, 2 points..... because thats what the box said, then when he did the calculations at home it wound up to be 4 points per sandwich LOL I thought he was going to cry haaaaaaa

Thanks

Leenie

You have to run the recipes through the recipe builder again. The WW products will have the new points when the old packaging is used up. No need to waste food just because the points changed.
