thoreauso - after the gym tonight - I snacked on my favorite thing, kapha tea and gingersnap cookies. Good old fashioned Nabisco ginger snaps :) I had three.
So - being the good Weight Watchers boy that I am - lets convert it into points. Here's where it gets difficult... the serving size on the box is 28g. Do they really think people think to the themselves, "Self - I think I'll have 28g of ginger snaps with my tea!?"
Who the hell thinks nutritionally about ounces and grams? (besides, apparently, Nabisco) - it says in a 16oz box of ginger snaps there are 16 28g servings. Blah! so there are 16 - 1 oz servings in a box - at 120 calories per serving. An "ounce" of ginger snap does me no good either.
Whatever that means - I think its meaning to me that I can have a few ginger snaps with my tea and not ruin my diet goals.
Kapha tea by the way - is a delicious mix of cardamom, saffron, fennel, cloves & ginger. It's becoming my daily habit to drink a cup before bed.
