Crispy baked chips made from jicama? Yup! We first sampled
these super-tasty portion-controlled snacks at last year's Natural Foods Expo West -- now they're going mainstream. And they're available in three new flavors: Chili Lime, White Cheddar, and Spicy Soy Ginger. (The Smoked BBQ isn't new, but it's our favorite!)

Craving-buster alert: In Thin Mints and Caramel Coconut (a la Caramel deLites/Samoas),
this gum tastes exactly like Girl Scout cookies! There are also stevia-sweetened mints that taste like Thin Mints cookies. We're especially nuts about the Caramel Coconut gum. Find them at Target locations nationwide... Definitely worth seeking out!

Think daily workouts cancel out an otherwise sedentary lifestyle? Think again…
Sitting is way up there on the list of current health villains, and a
recent study has hit us with a huge bummer: Even if you're exercising for the recommended 150 minutes per week, you're still at risk for the negative health effects associated with excessive sitting. Researchers recommend replacing sitting time with light to vigorous activity; basically anything but sitting still. This sounds like a good time to refresh you on
Housewalking...
And that's all we've got. 'Til next time… Chew the right thing!
