- I would LOVE to try the Light Spaghetti noodles. If I could sneak this in where the boys didn't see the box and fix them spaghetti - I bet they'd never know they were eating healthier!

FiberGourmet
Our unique FiberGourmet technology allows us to manufacture pasta, crackers and cakes which taste the same as the conventional versions but have 10 times more fiber. We even have more fiber than whole wheat! (See comparison chart to the right for details). And because we use insoluble fiber, which has no calories, we are able to literally cut the calories in half.
Review
They sent me some samples to try. I received some of the lite nacho snacks, light wheat snacks, cheese snacks, a box of the light mac n cheese and a lite microwave brownie mix.
Delicious wheat crackers with half the calories of standard crackers (150 vs. 75 for 32g). Our competitor's 100-calorie packs have only 21 grams, leaving you hungry later. By contrast, for just 75 calories we give you a generous and filling 32 grams (1.15 oz)!
- Case of six boxes, each with six single-serve pouches (total 36 pouches, 41.4 oz)
- 75 calories, compared to 150 in standard crackers
- 12g fiber in each package (48% of Daily Value)
- High-barrier packaging keeps crackers fresh and delicious for at least 6 months from order date

Serving Size | 32g (1.15 oz) | 32g (1.15 oz) |
Calories | 75 | 150 |
Fiber | 12g | Less than 1g |
Next I tried the lite nacho snacks. They also have 12g of fiber and taste great. I would compare them to cheez its, but these are so much better for me and have 1/2 the calories. I had these as an afternoon snack one day at work. They are yummy.
Try the only Nacho crackers that taste just like the Cheez-It's (or Cheese Nips) you love, but with literally half the calories!

The Light cheese snacks were really good too! I shared these at work and everyone raved.

Update, 2/24: Due to a packaging mishap, we have had to bulk-pack our cheese crackers. Instead of putting them in the 6-pack boxes, and then having 6 of those boxes per case, we are now packing 36 bags into each box. It's the same number of crackers, just bulk packed now instead of in boxes. To make up for the absence of the boxes, we took another $1 off our already low price, and are now selling the case for only $23.
What's more, the plant is packing these by hand, and while their counting isn't perfect I understand they usually err on the side of too many packages per box, not too few ...
The lite frosted brownies are so good. All you do is add water and then pop it in the microwave for a sweet treat. They are only 90 calories which is amazing. I could eat this every day and not feel too bad about it.
