If you're looking to get rid of belly fat, here's our advice: Stay away from anything "fudge-covered. A "fluffy" creme sandwiched between two chewy oatmeal cookies—it certainly sounds sinful, and it kind of is.
Not only is this Little Debbie cookie sandwich loaded with high fructose corn syrup, artificial flavor, and partially hydrogenated oil, but it's also high in sodium. These cookies don't contain high fructose corn syrup, but they're loaded with 14 grams of sugar. Beware of misleading health-food buzzwords that can actually get in the way of your quest for a better bod.
Unfortunately, the Keebler Elves' powers of nutrition aren't that magical. These Double Stuffed E. Fudge cookies are full of diet-destroying sugar, fats, and calories.
Milano cookies feel like an upscale treat, but a serving of these milk chocolate cookies serves up over a quarter of your daily recommended intake of added sugars. No, thank you! Any chance of these cookies beating out Oreos for a healthier nutrition profile was foiled by their packaging. Along with this diet disaster, watch out for these sneaky foods with bogus serving sizes.
They may be sugar-free, but that doesn't mean they're good for your belly. These wafers are sweetened with maltitol—a plant-based sweetener that a study in the International Journal of Dentistry has associated with stomach and abdominal pain, as well as excessive internal gas and flatulence. They also contain two of our worst sweeteners for weight loss —the gut-harming artificial sugars sucralose and acesulfame potassium. Oreos—both milk's and your bad gut bacteria's favorite cookie.
That's because simple carbs and sugar molecules of which you'll find 14 per Oreo serving are the main source of fuel for pathogenic bacteria, fungus, and yeast, which can conquer and kill off the good bacteria that help keep your hunger hormones in check and that love-handle-inducing inflammation at bay.
If you can stick to a serving, Double Stuf is actually a slightly better choice for your bod when compared to the original version. But you're getting one less cookie in that portion size, so you'll have to fight that "just one more" urge even harder. Quiet that little voice in your head with our 14 Easy Steps to Crush Cravings. Although Lorna Doone's shortbread recipe was originally given to Nabisco by a Scottish employee from Pittsburgh, we doubt the version he passed on from his mother called for high fructose corn syrup, partially hydrogenated oils, and artificial flavor.
These vanilla wafers may appear simple and innocent, but they're made with sugar, high fructose corn syrup, partially hydrogenated oils, artificial flavoring, and soy lecithin , which you really shouldn't need unless it's a chocolate treat. These candy-coated morsels may be bright, but they're likely to dull your mind, thanks to being coated in partially hydrogenated oils. Scientists have found that trans fats tend to turn solid once they're inside your body, where they jam up your arteries, including those in your brain.
Multiple studies have found that those with the most trans fat in their blood have significantly worse cognitive performance, physically smaller brains, and impaired memory, compared to those who consume fewer trans fats. If you have a peanut butter obsession , chances are good that you've indulged in Nutter Butters a time or two. Who can blame you? Nabisco truly nailed the sweet and crunchy combo. Nutritionally speaking, though, they're not top-notch.
Chowing down on a package of these peanut-shaped cookies will set you back where it hurts, thanks to their empty calories, hydrogenated-oil fat, appetite-revving sodium, and blood-sugar-spiking sugar. There are nine grams of sugar per two-cookie serving of these Milano cookies—and let's be real, there's a good chance you'll eat more than two.
No thanks! Although the idea of soft, chewy cookies reminds us of home, don't wallow in the nostalgia. These cookies may technically be classified as a "good source of fiber," but that doesn't mean they're a solid nutritional choice. It feels like they are kicking us when we are down. It really does. I'm a horrible shopper for the right bargains, but I sure do see the prices going up and up. Always, unless I intend to splurge. I allow myself a small package of good coffee every other month.
That's not inflation though, so stop complaining. We'll just switch from Nilla Wafers to gnawing on old sho leather. In fact it's deflation!
Those shoes can be had for free from the backs of our closets! Here's what I've noticed: First, as you spotted, the basic everyday price of things -- go in looking for a box of Ritz crackers, buy a box of Ritz crackers, pay the price marked -- has crept up painfully. However I've also noticed a much bigger swing in sale pricing and coupon availability. Advance planning, and some serious coupon organization, and I'm actually spending substantially less now than I did five years ago.
That said, there is a major, major drawback: money. But if you can't shell out the cash to do so when it's on sale , you're out of luck and lose out. Sometimes I can get the deal and make it pay off, some months I can't. Here at Kroeger things have gotten cheaper on their store brand BUT i've noticed older established brands are high priced and losing shelf space.
I don't like the idea of kroeger getting a monopoly on selling and producing goods. I hate that food prices are rising like this. I especially worry about the children who are going hungry, the old people, etc. People are really hurting. THAT went by the wayside last spring. My basic grocery list is getting smaller and smaller and smaller I will fess up to coffee still being a "staple" tho.
As someone suggested, baking cookies might be the way to go. It's more expensive than imitation, but a million times tastier, and typically you only use a teaspoon for a batch. That's for FOUR damn soy burgers.
And that is the highest price. Some are priced lower depending on which store you are shopping. They taste the same as the name brand. And I'm talking a decade or so, inflation not reflected by the CP effing I. And shipping is free I was stunned! I think at that point I would start eating grass and tree bark. Seek and ye shall find. Or Big Lots? I'm lucky though because they aren't far from me. They may be items remaindered out from brokers and such, which means they could very well have been sitting somewhere for a long time.
If they are a good deal, that's great, but just exercise caution. Miz O pours over the twice weekly local paper for the two for 1 sales for those four stores, and checks the in-store sales as well.
By making a sort of a circular route, she visits all four of them with her 'lists', and also stops by the library to restock the movies she gets from them we don't have teevee service, and our dial-up connection prohibits streaming Netflix, but we have the 3 at a time plan It helps a bit.
I liked it better when certain companies made certain things, and did it well and for a fair price, but I guess there was just not enough money in it for them.. There are many things I just no longer buy unless they are on crazy-cheap-sale. Have you looked at Big Lots or the 99cent stores? Lots of times they have name brand stuff I got 2 of them. I honored the picket line when workers at Von's, Ralph's, and other big chains stuck in I started buying most of my food at Trader Joe's, and Costco for things that I could handle in large quantities.
I go to a Von's for my medication and pet supplies only. Sub-thread removed by moderator. Click here to review the message board rules. But we can't have everything, right? And, although the evidence is strictly anecdotal, it also appears that Nilla wafers have done better in taste tests. For example, in a side-by-side comparison between Stauffer's "vanilla wafers" and Nabisco Nillas, the latter was the "clear winner," according to Second Rate Snacks , which "noted the pleasant vanilla aroma right from opening" the Nillas, as well as the "soft crunch" and "melt in your mouth" sensation.
By comparison, the Stauffer's wafers were "too rough and dry with a poor quality vanilla flavor. On the other hand, Nilla wafers don't come in rainbow colors like some of the competing brands such as Keeblers have from time-to-time via Fortune.
On the other other hand, Nilla wafers are available in mini-cookie size, which makes them super-fun and great for the kiddies. As common as vanilla may be as a flavor nowadays, there was once a point in history when it was a rare commodity, according to Scientific American.
That's because, at the time, things that were flavored "vanilla" had to be made with actual vanilla beans, or, at the very least, extract of vanilla beans. Of course, that hasn't been the case since the turn of the 20th century, which is when chemists invented "vanillin," which can be manufactured without a lick of actual vanilla bean.
Rather, Scientific American reports that vanillin can be "synthesized variously from pine bark, clove oil, rice bran, and lignin. You can read more about the difference between vanilla and vanillin , but we're going to just come right out and say it: Nilla wafers contain no actual vanilla. That doesn't mean they don't taste delicious and make a mean Southern banana pudding.
But there ya go. Now ya know. The Nilla part came from vanilla beans Shutterstock. Nilla Wafers helped make Southern banana pudding what it is today Shutterstock. Nilla wafers can be used in lots of ways that aren't Southern banana pudding Instagram.
Are Nilla wafers actually made with vanilla, though?
