Oh I remember when I was on the program in 2001, they had these little choco chewy candies & I LOVED them! They were like calcium chews & would kill the 3 pm chocolate craving. Do they still offer them? I'd love to get some to keep in my desk at work.

My centre is Southern California had "calcium chews" for sale when I went in this morning. There are two flavors; orange and chocolate and I bought one of each. They are square, instead of the tootsie roll shape of the choco chews, but they are REALLY good and have the same texture that the choco chews had. Texture like a tootsie roll. They cost two-something a bag and I'm sorry I didn't look to see how many were in the bag. Maybe 15? I don't know if they are permanent or just a passing item...Everyone that was in when I was there bought one of each.

Yeah! The calcium chews are AWESOME! I have already eaten mine for the day...they do hit the spot among the mid-afternoon munchie time.
I highly recommend the chocolate.

The Orange one's are the best. I noticed that right sfter breakfast is when i crave something sweet and they defintely hit the spot.

I sure wish we could get them in Canada, but alas, the government won't let them in.

Have you guys ever tried the Viactiv chocolate chews? They are calcium and vitamin D. My girls and I love them. They are 20 calories each and remind me of a little tootsie roll type candy. There are a lot of yummy flavors, like chocolate and chocolate-mint.

My son takes them daily. He dislikes dairy products (not intolerant, just dislikes 'em), so he gets a good portion of his calcium from these chews. He hates that they're marketed as a women's supplement, but he loves the taste.
I'll probably drop the JC chews and dip into his supply.

Hey thanks! I'm in S. CA too so I'm sure my center has them. I'll have to check for them on Friday.

I love these. I always have mine after lunch to give me a little boost and a feel like i am cheating. I love them.

What are the calcium chews in place of or equal to.

I liked the orange one best, but they are both pretty good, IMHO!

No joke I use to cheat with some choc. here and there. But, now with the chews I dont have to no more. Did ask my counciler are the chews a stay or are they temporary? Any one know?
