Taste Tuesday: Weight Watchers Dessert Inspired Yogurts

Lemon Cream Pie, Amaretto Cheesecake, and White Chocolate Raspberry...it sounds like the dessert tray at your local fine restaurant. They are new flavors in the Weight Watchers® brand line of yogurt. Is spooning up to a 6-ounce of these yogurts really as satisfying as eating the real deal? Umm, not exactly. But if you like yogurt and you like these desserts, you'll probably be a happy yogurt snacker, that's for sure. I really liked all the flavors but I think the Lemon Cream Pie was my favorite, with the Amaretto Cheesecake as a close second.

Each 6-ounce cup is worth 1 point in the Weight Watchers Point system - the 3 grams of fiber per serving helps make that happen. The fiber is mostly coming from inulin fiber (mostly a soluble fiber).

Do note that these flavors are sweetened with sucralose (Splenda) along with crystalline fructose. I noticed the "Splenda" flavor most in the white chocolate raspberry flavor for some reason. Each of these flavors has some differences in their list of ingredients but the first ingredient is always milk fat and nonfat milk.

Each 6-ounce cups contains:

100 calories
.5 g fat
0 g saturated fat
5 mg cholesterol
17 g carbohydrate (12 g sugar)
3 g fiber
6 g protein
110 mg sodium
