Two of the Lunch Ladies favorite things: pizza and Amy's. The organic vegetarian company hardly ever disappoints us. Finally they come out with single-serving sized versions of their pizzas. Unfortunately, these pizzas are not microwaveable, so you'll need to have a toaster oven in your break room or reserve these for dinner at home. All the pizzas have 0 trans fat, no added MSG, no bioengineered ingredients and no preservatives.

Description: The pesto turned the pizza chartreuse. The picture on the box showed a lot more cheese.
Gretchen: The flavor was good, but I didn't like the mushy tomatoes. The wheat crust was fantastic. I wish Amy's sold this by itself so I could make my own healthy pizzas at home.
Kimberly: The crust was delicious, I must agree. Let's not forget that Gretchen has never really been a friend to the tomato.

I'm very concerned about packaged food's ingredients and what country they come from. I wrote to Kraft and asked if any added ingredients come from China or other countries and they wrote back saying they are careful with what they used--they never denied using imported ingredients.

In the light of current food recalls, I want to know what I'm buying. Can you do a story investigating the ingredients companies use for packaged foods? -- Nancy

The Ladies' response: Thanks for the e-mail and the idea. Gretchen and I have different responsibilities at work and probably can't tackle an investigative piece on the packaged food industry. However, you might try eating less processed food. Here's a good site you might want to check out: http://www.slowfoodusa.org/. Shopping at Whole Foods could also be a healthier options since they won't sell products with lots of additives. -- Kimberly

Why don't you put the Weight Watchers Point values next to nutritional info anymore? Love your column, Ladies! Thanks. -- Kelly

The Ladies' response: Unfortunately we are no longer able to publish Weight Watchers Points in our column or newsletter. Weight Watchers Points are trademarked by Weight Watchers International and are only permitted to be associated with Weight Watchers products and licensees. However, you can figure the Points based on the calories, fat and fiber that we list. --Gretchen

Where can you buy the Fage Yogurt? -- Virginia

The Ladies' response: In Dallas, you can find it at Whole Foods and Central Market. If you don't have those stores near you, then you might ask your grocery store to order it. Albertson's is usually good about that. You might mention to them that Whole Foods and Central Market struggle to keep the yogurt stocked. At Central Market, I was told the yogurt is their highest seller and people buy it by the case.
