What's your favorite urban myth concerning SmartPoints (or any other type of WW Points)?
Here are few that have come to my attention over the years; please feel free to add your own via the Comments Box!
- If your doctor prescribed it (or if someone in authority says you HAVE TO ingest it), it doesn't have any Points.
- If you eat it over a sink, it doesn't have any Points. (?)
- If you eat it in another country, it doesn't have any Points.
- If it's broken before you eat it, it doesn't have any Points. (I guess they leaked out...?)
- If no one sees you eat it, it doesn't have any Points.
- If you can't pronounce it, it doesn't have any Points.
- If it's a special occasion, the accompanying food/drink doesn't have any Points.
- Wine starts out as a grape, so it's a fruit and it doesn't have any Points.
- Chocolate starts out as a bean, so it's a vegetable/legume.
- If your activity monitor is malfunctioning, walking/moving more/exercising isn't good for you.
Addenda:
- If you eat a candy bar (your choice) and wash it down with a diet soda, it doesn't have any Points.
- If you eat to keep someone else on the Program from having to eat it, it doesn't have any Points. (It's called taking one for the team!)
- If you thought you were eating the sugar-free version (but find out you weren't), it doesn't have any Points.
- If you don't cut into the cake/pie/pizza/etc., isn't it still just one piece? (Wink, wink, nudge, nudge...)
If it's given to you as a free sample, it doesn't have any points.
