For most kids, having an after school snack while talking about their day at school is part of their daily routine, but why not opt for a smarter choice rather than cookies or chips?
Recently, I was contacted by General Mills and asked to do the Yoplait Weekly Snack Swap. Each Thursday for one month I will swap out an unhealthy snack for a Yoplait Original Yogurt. I'll then post my results.
Week #2
Since Thursday was Thanksgiving we didn't do the Weekly Snack Swap, but we did do it on Friday. This week I swapped out their usual Little Debbie Snack for a Mountain Blueberry Yoplait Original yogurt. As suspected, they were not at all receptive to this swap. They did as I asked and ate the yogurt, but they weren't happy about it. I was happy about it though. And this is why:
Total Fat:
Debbie Snack: 10g
Yoplait Original: 1.5g
Calcium:
