It's a brand-new year, and you know what that means? All-new guilt-free foods to chew! Here are very latest portion-controlled, 100-calorie products that your pal Hungry Girl sniffed out...
Hostess 100 Calorie Packs, Cinnamon Streusel Muffins
PER SERVING (1 pack, 3 cakes): 100 calories, 3g fat, 135mg sodium, 21g carbs, 4g fiber, 7g sugars, 2g protein
Last year, Hostess rolled out 100-calorie packs each containing 3 icing-topped mini cakes in either chocolate, carrot, or golden cake. And these things were so good, HGers voted them the best 100-calorie pack of 2007. Well, the lovely Hostess with the mostest has done it again. These new packs contain 3 mini streusel muffins. Each bite-sized dessert is topped with sweet crumbly goodness, and each pack contains a whopping 4 grams of fiber. BTW, there are also Blueberry and Banana versions of these packs, but the cinnamon ones are the best by far (they taste exactly like Drake's Coffee Cakes and are so cute that we want to drink 3 tiny cups of coffee with 'em!).
Kettle Brand Bakes Lightly Salted Potato Chips in 100-calorie packs
PER SERVING (0.8-oz. bag): 100 calories, 2.5g fat, 90mg sodium, 17g carbs, 2g fiber, 0g sugars, 2g protein
We dig the Kettle Brand Bakes line of potato chips, which have fewer calories and fat grams than regular chips. But as serious chip-lovers know, sticking to one serving when you've got a ginormous bag in front of you is next to impossible. Enter KB's new 100-calorie packs of their Bakes Lightly Salted Potato Chips! Each pack promises 18 chips (very impressive!). We hope the other Bakes Potato Chip flavors--Hickory Honey Barbeque and Aged White Cheddar--make their way into these 100-calorie packs soon!
Hershey's 100 Calorie Wafer Bars: Reese's Peanut Butter and York Peppermint
PER SERVING (1 bar): 100 calories, 6g fat, 10 - 50mg sodium, 11g carbs, <1g fiber, 8 - 9g sugars, <1 - 2g protein
We love, love, love when companies don't just downsize the portion of their product and call it a 100-calorie pack, but actually invent a whole new snack food that has just 100 calories. That's why these Wafer Bars from Hershey's have earned some serious treat cred in our book. The Reese's bars contain a layer of peanut butter between 2 cookie-like wafers, all encased in a chocolate shell. The York Peppermint ones feature peppermint cream surrounded by light chocolatey wafers dunked in chocolate coating. Yum!!! Congrats, Hershey's!
Snyder's of Hanover Multigrain Sunflower Chips in 100-calorie packs: French Onion and Southwest Cheddar
PER SERVING (0.74-oz. bag): 100 calories, 4g fat, 140mg sodium, 14g carbs, 1g fiber, 1g sugars, 1g protein*
Another chip company has clearly gotten the memo about serving up delicious crunchy snacks in smaller bags. These Multigrain Sunflower Chips contain lots of good-for-you whole grains and boast 40% less fat than regular potato chips. French onion fans and cheddar lovers across the globe will dig these flavor-packed, portion-controlled snacks. Just make sure you stick to one pack at a time!
