Taste Test Tuesday: Hostess 100 Calorie Pack Blueberry Streusel Muffins
At the risk of sounding like Randy Jackson (from American Idol) - these were "just okay for me." Yes, they were moist but there were itty-bitty pieces of blueberries (that didn't even seem real) and the flavor was on the bland side.
Each packet of 3 mini muffins contains 4 grams of fiber, seemingly from guar gum and cellulose gum, and 7 grams of sugar. I did notice the alternative sweetener, acesulfame potassium, is in the ingredient list, which might help explain why the grams of sugar aren't too high.
If you are accustomed to taking big bites, you will probably be tempted to pop the mini muffin in your mouth all at once. But if you can, each mini muffin can account for about three bites each. Do the math and each bite will cost you about 11 calories (because there are 100 calories total and 3 mini muffins).
The first seven ingredients: enriched bleached wheat flour, sugar, polydextrose, eggs, water, egg whites, soybean oil.
Each serving (3 mini muffins) contains: 100 calories, 2 g protein, 20 g carbohydrate, 3 g fat, .5 g saturated fat, 10 mg cholesterol, 4 g fiber, 120 mg sodium. Calories from fat: 27 percent.
