Am I the only one who always eats like four or five 100cal packs in a row? I cannot eat just that little bit, it drives me crazy.

@momentsofabsurdity: I realized they weren't worth it when I would eat like... the whole box in one sitting. And all the packaging makes me feel guilty for the damaging the environment

if you are in the market for a good tasting, filling snack why not have some of the Kashi cookies? Their dark chocolate oatmeal cookies are made of win!

Like most people, when I want cookies I want COOKIES. Not lameass packaging and a dose of guilt for wanting cookies in the first place.

Oh yes, and I want GOOD COOKIES.

100 calorie packs only work in vending machines.

outside of that, they are too expensive. why spend more for all that packaging?

Next time I want to throw away a pound of plastic packaging in the pursuit of non-nourishment I'll be left with no choice but the wrapped saltines at the salad bar. I'm not hungry or anything, I'm just fucking obnoxious.

I'll admit, I've had an Oreo pack, and while they are NO SUBSTITUTE for milk's favorite cookie, I have thought about throwing a bunch of them into a bowl and calling it breakfast.

@Skellatrix: they're really good crunched atop ice cream. I think we're both in the same vein.

I'm too poor for food. When I get hungry, I poach some of my abandoned dreams and serve them with a side dish of steamed futility with a nice tangy hopelessness sauce.

@morninggloria: I read "hopelessness sauce" as "homelessness sauce" and gagged.

The waste issue bothers me a lot less than the "paying someone extra money to measure my food for me" issue. Bottom line is they're the absolute least cost effective way to buy snack food.

Give me a whole package of real Oreos (and milk!) or give me death.

@PrarieMuffin: I hear you- these little packed things are hella expensive. I buy cookies in bulk and them separate them into baggies so I don't eat all of it at once. Even though sometimes I still do.

THIS... is what I end up making my own reused baggie 100(ish) Calorie snacks with. Fruit or some of these (which are de-freakin-licious and crunchy too):

[www.nutsonline.com]

Mmm... Green Bean Chips are so good. And the ones at my local store are actually crazy low in sodium and lower in fat than these (I just can't find that brand online).

not green-friendly, not wallet friendly, not tasty. I can measure servings and even bake my own damn self. We don't need self-righteous companies insulting us by telling us we can eat unhealthy foods in a "healthy" way. We're not that fucking stupid. Color me unsurprised.

I'll admit that I like the (Cadbury?) 100 calorie chocolate bars. But not for the calorie count, just because they're smaller. I don't always need a whole candy bar. And, frankly, sometimes it gets pretty icky in my desk drawer if I don't eat the whole thing in one go.

I absolutely love the chex mix version of the 100 calorie packs because they just have the cheesey coated chex pieces and they don't muck up the magic with a bunch of damn pretzels and pieces of melba toast. I just want my chex cereal coated in cheesey dust. I don't need that other shit.

Yeah, those things are a total waste and taste like shit. Though, I'm definitely not who they market to, as I buy 99% of my groceries from Trader Joe's. Actually, I bought their version of this a few times-- little cheesy fish-shaped crackers and they were delicious. Methinks it was the lack of preservatives and fake flavor things. Hmmmm...

@the queen of no (is all giggles + blowjobs): You should try the TJs 100 calorie dark chocolate bars, they are delicious and my favorite 100 calorie product ever.

Those stupid companies must be crying themselves to sleep at night. They were selling us less food for more money! It'll never get that good for them again.

I always feel bad about getting things in individual packages just because of the whole waste issue. That said, Smartfood leaves me powerless to exercise any sort of portion control, so when I'm looking to replenish my junk food food drawer, the 100cal packs have been known to end up in my shopping carriage.

I know, I know, I should just portion it out into ziploc bags. I'm getting there.
