I enjoyed the new Raspberry Twists tonight. They are just like the cinnamon ones (but shorter) with a raspberry flavor. They come in a tub with 5 servings (like the gingerbread men). Have to hide it so I don't keep eating them tonight.

I think I will have to stock up on these.

I thought they were really good also. Though, was anyone as suprised as me that they did not come individually packaged?? Giving people on a diet a tub of cookies is never a good idea!

I agree, having the tub is too tempting. I passed on getting them because I didn't want to deal with having the extras around. Otherwise would just have to set up the menu to have all 5 servings in one week wink.gif but could not give up that many days with out having chocolate. I am a chocoholic biggrin.gif

Oh wow, these are GREAT!!! I am loving them and I had to hide them from my BF! At first I didn't appreciate the tub but now I am OK with practicing the portion control on my own. I'm glad I didn't pass these up because of that! C'mon, you can do it!!! wink.gif

I too really like them! I just seperated mine into the snack size ziploc bags so I wouldn't eat more than 1 serving!

I love these things. They are so addictive though. The first couple of days I found myself wanting "a few" more and finally put them out of sight. This is the end of the week and I still have half the tub left! Yay me!

Well, I didn't as smart as you until the 2nd time I ordered them! The first time, I didn't actually stop at 4 per serving and thought, I won't get those again! Wrong. I had to come to grips with the fact that portion control is a big part of my weight problem, so in the real world, I need to figure out a way to deal with it.

Like you, I bought another tub this last week and portioned them into 5 snack sized ZipLocks and that is definitely working for me.

Another fan of the raspberry twists here. Not only do I like the way they taste, I'm a fan of the cost too.

I hope JC is looking at offering more builk items in the near future.

I tried that also, but was not as successful. I didn't think the raspberry were any better or worse than the cinnamon, but I'll keep buying the cinnamon since it's individually packaged. If I had self-control, I wouldn't be on Jenny Craig!

Keep 'em, but package them individually please!
