Has anyone else tried the new WW product available at WW centers? They are chocolate and vanilla smoothie mixes which can be made with either water or 8 oz. skim milk. With the water they are 2 points and count for 1 milk. With milk, they are 3 points and count for 2 milks. I just had a chocolate one and thought it was very good. Has anyone tried the vanilla? What did you think if you did?

Haven't seen this product yet. Will look for it next time I go to a meeting. How is it price-wise since most of the stuff sold at the meetings are on the high side.

I love the chocolate. But Im not real fond of the vanilla one. I like to throw strawberries or rasberries in it and mix half water half milk for 3 points.

Gin: At my center they are 5.95 and there is 7 per box.

That's a good price Lily. At my center it is $8 for a box of 7.

Do you have to throw this stuff in a blender? Or just mix it with the water or milk? Is it better than the Alba or Weight Watchers Shakes(which I think are pretty good) similar? - or entirely different?

I'm always interested in their products and price is no object.

I just mixed mine with a spoon, but next time I will blend it. It tasted fine, but it was hard to get all the lumps out without blending it. I'venever tried Alba or the WW shakes, so I can't compare the two.

They were out of chocolate so I bought vanilla. It was okay, I think next time I will make the cappucino frappe in the recipe booklet. A box here cost $7.00. I haven't had the Alba drinks in a long time, but I remembered that I really like them (might have to go and buy some now).
