A single serving that is, not an entire bunny :p

^^ Not by much. Looks like 2g or so more if the nutritional information I'm finding online is correct. The calorie count isn't even a huge difference, I don't think any of these would make a terrible snack if the rest of your meals were healthy.

Jelly beans! Those are my weakness. I like the Starburst jelly beans and the SweetTarts ones as well.

now i feel guilty for buying the small box of Cadbury creme eggs and the box of peep bunnies. ah well. they will still go in my belly >)

I can't have Peeps :( I miss them. I do love Cadbury creme eggs though. One year I bought a bunch of them and ate them... ever since, they just don't have that specialness. Nothing else on the list I really care for.

I'll have a few Reese's eggs and some Jelly Belly this Easter season and I don't feel bad about it in the least. One-hundred eighty calories is not really that many. :shrug:

Jellybeans are my favorite western candy!! Also, since jellybeans contain little/no fat like chocolate candies, you can eat a handful, soothing your craving for sweetness and still having a lower calorie count!

I love Easter chocolate and plan to indulge in something I rarely eat. I'm not going to feel guilty...it's not like I don''t sacrifice things I crave every day of my life and it's not like I'm out of shape or overweight. I'm over it...

A Reeces egg has more calories than a Cadbury Egg? I would not have guessed that (love those Reeces eggs but who can have just one?)

Cool! For once my favorite thing isn't the highest calories and fat. Yeah Reese's eggs. Couldn't pay me to eat a Peep or a Cadbury gooey egg.

Personally, I love the sugar free Peeps. Three big ones are only 60 calories.

I'll bet Fit gives into her sweet tooth every now and then. Holidays are no exeption! I know my fave Easter treat, the Cadbury Egg, is 3 Weight Watcher points each, so if I stick by that guideline, I'm O.K. :-)
