So I was at the the grocery store picking up some necessities and was going to pick up some Oreo's. I picked up the reduced fat as an good weight watcher should. Then I noticed that the full fat variety was on sale. Well this Weight Watcher also happens to be broke so I took a look at the labels. Are you kidding me! Only 10 calories difference? Granted the 2.5 grams of fat is pretty substantial but to me I felt like those 10 calories should have been more like 70. True the calories are reduced, but I feel like if your going to offer a product that you are claiming to be healthier than your original version, it should be considerably healthier.
Just my 2 cents.

Take into consideration that the packages cost the same, usually, but there are fewer cookies in the Reduced Fat package.
I have even found more calories in a reduced fat or low carb version of a product. Never assume, I guess!
AMEN. for me and the oreos (my downfall) I saw that and went with the full fat.

Always pays to read the labels, eh? Grocery shopping takes longer, but it's well worth it.
