Nonfat does not make it okay -- it's just an easily-absorbed high-glycemic-index sugar bomb.

I realize I'm no fun at parties. ;-)

without sugar there can't be much fun - it is just the plain truth. I couldn't live a life without the occasional easily-asorbed high-glycemic-index sugar bomb.

I didn't post it saying "LOOK ME AND MY UBER-HEALTHY NONFAT-FROYO!!!!"

And smokers say they can't go without a smoke!

But seriously, as an occasional (< 1/week) treat this is okay, but it's typical of the processed goodies that have been sugared up to make them irresistible to animals evolved to crave sweet, then stripped of nutrients and fiber (which would slow absorption of the sugars.) So are we animals or can we learn to resist?

I'll be quiet now. :-)

not everyone has the zen concentration on their diet as you seem to be able to achieve. I have followed your evangelical war against high fructose corn syrup. SO we don't completely agree. :)

Muffin, I still love you even if you had an easily-absorbed high-glycemic-index sugar bomb. But do it again, and you're getting it!

I look for nonfat products too, not because the absence of real fat is important, but because they tend to have lower calories than even the "low cal" versions of items.

And calories count.

Dude, you look like a nonfat product!

LOL. Thanks! I try. These days I wouldn't mind losing a pound or two.
