It’s been forever since I’ve done a good old fashion Food Find. Now that I’m getting comfortable in my new home I feel I can spend a little more time grocery shopping and stocking (I’m very much a buy in bulk stock-er type of shopper so the whole temporary living situation for that last 2 months really crimped my style).
Just in case you were wondering, Food Finds are products that just happen to catch my attention while shopping. They aren’t paid reviews (which I don’t do) or products that companies send me to try. I post them as Product Reviews. It’s been so long I thought I’d take a minute to clarify.
Anyway.. let me get to this 1 point chocolate cup from heaven!
Can you tell I liked it? It was the perfect ending to my lunch today. I packed some leftover Dried Herb and Yogurt Marinated Pork…
…and one of these cups. It was perfect, like my own little TV dinner. I love the idea of having a sweet bite after a savory meal. And it’s even better if the sweet bite is only 60 calories!
The texture was super light and airy. To be honest I’m not sure what traditional mousse is "suppose" to taste like but I don’t care. This totally hit the spot for me and was a nice change from original sugar free pudding cups.
There are two other flavors, Caramel Crème and Chocolate Indulgence. Has anyone else tried them?
Oh! and I can’t find them on the official jell-o site so I’m guessing they are pretty new.

What's Cooking in my kitchen?

Finally my first Farro idea! I have to say, I love this stuff! It's chewy and yummy and, well, fun! I tossed it with what I could find in my pantry and it made a wonderfully satisfying lunch. Filling but not heavy, tasty and quite nutrient dense. According to NutritionData.com this [...] -
I've seen it mentioned in a few of my clean eating and healthy cook books but honestly, I never even thought of Farro as an option for me. I refuse to shop at specialty stores and I try to use only common products that I can keep in stock and purchase from a typical grocery [...] -
I've never had a tuna melt. Is that weird? I guess that's what happens when you grow up not liking mayonnaise. I never ate tuna salad or egg salad or chicken salad. Honestly, they always kind of grossed me out. Then I realized.. hey.. why does tuna salad have [...] -
I have no idea where this idea came from. I was hungry. It was lunch. I had Brussels Sprouts. That was all the catalyst I needed.:) I decided to use a slice of real bacon to add flavor and little fat that would help sauté the sprouts. I'm trying [...] -
WOW was this good. I mean seriously good. It's not vegetarian so don't start throwing stones. I'm calling it a Garden Vegetable Burger because I use the new Laughing Cow Smooth Sensations Garden Vegetable Cream Cheese Spread. It was this recipe on Allrecipes.com that inspired [...] -
I drink water 99.9% of the time but every so often it just doesn't cut it. I want something else. Something more. Something slightly sweet. Today was one of those days. I decided to make a refreshing drink based on the famous Arnold Palmer, half lemonade and half iced [...] -
The other day I made a whole chicken on the grill in pieces. It was delicious! Just a little BBQ sauce and an open flame is all I need to make The Husband happy in the dinner department. I also picked up a few ears of corn from the grocery store. They aren't in season [...] -
Let me explain so you don't think I'm making a chili recipe and just put it on pizza. I'm calling this vegetarian Chili Pizza because chili is what inspired flavors. I think I told you. Little Bean is really into, well, BEANS! We go through a can about every 2 days. Yesterday [...] -
I've confessed my inability to follow recipes here on GreenLiteBites many, many times. I don't know why it's so hard for me. I can barely follow some of my own and I wrote the darn things! I think most of my problem stems from not having all the ingredients listed and, [...] -
Leftover brown rice and leftover sauce meet in this quick lunch idea inspired by my favorite food of all time: Pizza. I swear I can turn anything into a pizza concoction. Have you seen all my pizza ideas? I've used everything from pumpkin to zucchini, polenta to wontons. Nothing is off [...] -
This isn't a recipe just an idea I had to share. I can't believe how good it was! I've never had grilled pineapple. Can you believe it? I just never really had the desire to grill it before. When you love something raw sometimes it doesn't occur to you to cook it. [...] -
I whipped this up for lunch on a whim today because, well, I have a baby who's obsessed with three things… Cheese, Beans, and Avocado. No, really. Look... It's my go to meal for him so I find myself with beans and avocado readily available. [...] -
You know that tradition 7 Layer Mexican Dip? The one with the cream cheese, guacamole, salsa, lettuce, cheese, green onion and olives? Yea. That's the one. Well I had a craving for it the other day. Well, not exactly for it as I can never make anything the way it's suppose [...] -
If you go through the archives of GreenLiteBites I have about 5 total beef recipes. Five. Compare that to the 80+ I have tagged with chicken/turkey there's a clear winner in the meat department on my blog and in my home. I don't have a beef with beef (omg The Husband [...] -
I'm a kitchen sink smoothie maker. Whatever I have on hand goes in the blender and viola! A quick breakfast or a healthy snack. Last year I posted an "Elastic Approach" to how I make smoothies but I still like to share specific combinations that worked really well. This was one [...] -
The other night it was just the kids and I home for dinner and I decided to make what I wanted to make no holds barred. Without The Husband home it's much easier for some reason. Hmmm wonder why? Ok, not here to husband bash.. really.. I'm not! I'm here [...] -
*sigh* I was really hoping to share an awesome turkey burger idea. I had grand plans for my leftover ground turkey. The results was alright but they could have been so much better. I added diced pineapple, red pepper, green pepper, oats and soy sauce to the meat and formed 2 patties. In hindsight I [...] -
I made this on a total whim yesterday having no idea if it would work. To my surprise it did AND the husband actually said he liked it... UNSOLICITED! Here's the story. I had only 4 tilapia fillets defrosted for dinner. I knew it wasn't going to be enough for us [...] -
This is a slight reboot of a recipe I posted last year simply called Sweet Potato and Black Bean Chili. Staying true to my use-what-I-have-on-hand roots I, well, used what I had on hand and made a similar dish with a spicy twist. Topping the result with avocado added a cool creaminess that [...] -
Did you hear? The Laughing Cow recently launched Smooth Sensations a line of 5 cream cheese spreads. There's Classic Cream, Classic Cream Light, Strawberries & Cream, Garden Vegetable and my favorite… Cinnamon. It's a sweet wedge of creamy goodness! Today I decided to use my new favorite flavor [...] -
Confession time, I recorded a 30 minute video making this with both kids (partally) 2 nights ago. I miss videos. I really do but they seem so much more difficult with 2 children. I'm also having technical difficulties with my video recording and audio syncing making it VERY time consuming to edit. [...] -
A couple of years ago I shared a modified version of Sloppy Joe's I made for a party. Everyone loved it but I've been wanting to try to make something similar for the family on a smaller scale and without the pre-made canned Manwich sauce. I don't particularly have any issues [...] -
Yesterday I was dreaming about a salad. Not just any salad, but a chickpea filled, cucumber, and red onion salad with a fun, tangy dressing. Unfortunately, I had no cucumber or red onion. Well, that's a lie. I had a half of cucumber but it was a mushy mess and [...] -
Dinner meals are getting harder and harder for me to share lately. I've gone back to just whipping things up without really measuring anything (this meal was going to be one of those until I realized I still had enough light to take some photos.) I've also instituted a few brainless meal nights [...] -
Three years ago I posted a video called "Makin' Hard Boiled Eggs" where I shared my system for, well... making hard boiled eggs. Genius name, I know. I'm smart like that. Anyway, since then I've gotten tons of feedback and comments thanking me but all the information is locked in a long winded 10 minute [...]

As far as I know they pretty much JUST came out, and I have yet to see them in any of my stores! But I really wanna try them, so I’m keeping my eye out.
I’ve tried them! I liked them well enough but low cal chocolate stuff always tastes salty to me for some reason. I liked the Yoplait Delights Lemon Torte parfait (new item as well) better. I think that’s what they were called anyway. It tasted like lemon icebox pie to me!
Glad you enjoyed a new food find!
I’ve tried them, and they’re very good. They don’t even taste “low calorie.” I couldn’t find the dark chocolate flavor so I settled for the chocolate indulgence.
Looking forward to trying them but I am even more so looking forward to trying that lunch of yours! I am off to GLB to find it.
I saw an ad for these and they looked delish. Glad to hear they are. I will have to pick some up next trip to the grocery store.
I’ve tried the Caramel Creme flavor- LOVED it! I couldn’t believe how good it was for 60 calories!
Roni,
What kind of to-go containers are those?
So funny. I’ve gotten more questions on that that anything. lol
They are recycled “to go” containers from a local restaurant. I get them from a Japanese place and an Italian place up the street. The quality is so good! I just run them through my dishwasher and reuse until they get so deformed the tops won’t go on any longer.
Ohhh – they had these at BlogHERFood09 and they sounded awesome. I definitely need to check them out now. Thanks Roni!
Thanks for this food find, Roni! I’ll be on the lookout for them!
Just found your blog in my google search ” my first half marathon.” I am running my first half this coming Sunday and I have been so nervous. Reading your story and hearing your time of 2:07 is so encouraging. Congrats and I have enjoyed reading your blog!
I have read about these and had an eye out for them, but :( haven’t found them yet.
Now I really really want them!!
OH MY!! I’ve tried the Chocolate Indulgence! Oh wow! They are fantastic! I don’t know what “real mousse” texture is supposed to be like either, but if you have a chocolate craving, these hit the spot! Last night I had one with a dollop of FF cool whip on top, and it was like the most decadent desert! Great food find for sure!!
I had the dark chocolate one today..omg so good.
I am going to look for those on my next shopping trip. I have already put them on the list….I love chocolate mousse…mmmmmmmm….
Thank you Roni for trying all of this stuff and then taking the time to tell us about it =)
I wish I liked sugar free stuff! I love mousse.
LOVE these, I’ve tried the dark and the caramel creme-which tastes a lot like dulce de leche, the reason I gained like 15 lbs living in Buenos Aires in ’99 ;)
I think they’re even better frozen…they stay smooth just like ice cream.
lainb – TOTALLY! Thanks for the idea!!
I just had the Dark Chocolate and it is so good. Can’t wait to try the other 2 flavors.
Found the Sugar Free Chocolate Mousse about a week ago at Pak ‘n Save (owned by Safeway). It is in the same size container as the S/F puddings, has the same caloric (60 cal) and Protein (1g) content, but is lighter in weight and has a higher fat content. It is really awesome. I think I’ll stick with that instead of the puddings from now on. Perfectly rich and light at the same time….doesn’t lose any flavor from the non-sugar free types. It will be a big hit once it hits all of the stores……
Do any of you remember Jello’s Whip ‘n Chill? These new mousse flavers are just like Whip ‘n Chill. Wonderful and only 60 calories. Love that!!!!!
Just so you know, Jello has a $1.25 coupon for the Mousse right now on their site. I am going to try it for the first time. My taste buds can’t wait !!! You will find it at KraftFirstTaste.com Enjoy
Just so we’re clear, this is a sugar free dessert, and although one cup is only 60 calories for just over 2 ounces which is reasonable, half of the calories are from fat. That said, when I ran out of my first 3 packages I had to run all over town for a week to find a Safeway that had more of them. They only had 2 chocolate mousses left and about 8 of the creme caramels. I took 2 of the mousses and 6 of the caramels in case any of you are from Oakland and were wondering why there were only 2 of the creme caramels left :-)
Seriously, Lucky had not even heard of them nor received any of them, and the Safeways said that they were hard to get. I guess they are revving up production slowly and taking a while to get used to the demand. Clearly Jello has a major hit on its hands! I usually have one of these a day. Every few days I might pull out one of the regular Jello S/F puddings just as contract, but as a favorite for me the chocolate mousse wins hands-down.
oops, that should “contrast”, not “contract” in the last sentence :0
i have had both the caramel cream and the dark chocolate mousse … they are out of this world … very delish!!!
Found these in the dairy section of Walmart — all flavors. Loved them!
I was really hoping to love this item, but I guess I’m the only person who cannot stand anything about this product! I’ll stick with the puddings and the new Yoplait parfaits!
Michelle – lol I did go back to the pudding cups but I do like these as a variation. If you have more try freezing them!
jello mousse is incredible.
OMG, I tried the chocolate indulgence and it’s amazing! I have a very sweet tooth and I’m always watching my weight because I tend to gain weight easily so this is a great find. I can’t wait to buy the dark chocolate version since that’s my favorite chocolate! Great product by Jello, congrats! The marketing def worked bc the moment I saw the tv ad I looked for it in the grocery aisle!
love the mousse temptations. there out of this world. could you please send coupons. there hard to get. thank you .
I go crazy for the Lemon Merangue(sp?) Temptations. YUM! 100 calories tho’, however; better than the old standby ice cream or candy bar.
