I'm sorry to say that but that diet swiss miss tastes vile! I was unfortunate to buy a box years back and regretted it. It tastes alkali and not like hot chocolate at all.

Can't wait for the BSI...I'm fairly new to this, can anybody enter? Will you give a couple details on how it works? Thank you! :) Work kitchens are dangerous! Luckily I now work with all men, 2 good things come of that. 1. no goodies arrive in our kitchen unless I bring them and 2. when I bring goodies they are gone immediately! Your salad looks great!

After all of the Halloween candy at my boyfriend's and the office, I feel like it's best to avoid it for a few days. That and alcohol! I am a big fan of that 25 calorie diet hot chocolate, I really like having it at night as a sweet ending to dinner .. that along with some yogurt and berries make for a healthier dessert alternative! Mmm you just reminded me of the cans of corn and black beans in my pantry that are dying to be made into something Mexican - thanks! I hear ya on the anti-chocolate week.
