Bring back Classico Chicken Parm! and Mesquite Chicken - both delicious! I also love the regular pancakes and the regular pretzels. The soups are awful and so are the salads to go

I agree that the soups need improvement. They need to come up with a different kind of soup.

I substitute Healthy Choice Chix Noodle for JC. It has less sodium, real chix, less calories and Fat.

Because I was OFF plan when these items were introduced... I would love the Apple Crisp and Pumpkin Cake to come back... fingers crossed for the fall!

As for meals - the Sirloin & Rice; Mesquite Chicken... I am sure there are others, but can't think of them off the top of my head... Oh, Chili Con Carne!

AND, the chocolate cherry cheesecake - Mmmm...
Back for the final time... Going to try for a thinner 2012!

I would love to try the apple crisp and Sirloin Beef. I heard they were both really good. I love pumpkin pie and hope they have another pumpkin dessert this fall.
Thanks for the information about the Healthy Choice Chicken Soup. I'm sure it is a lot cheaper than JC and you get more to eat.

I'm so sad that the mesquite chicken is going away! I just tried it for the first time the other night and it was SO good... Then I find out it is being discontinued... sad.gif Oh well... What are you gonna do?

I LOVE LOVE LOVE the raspberry twists. I bought a tub of them on Saturday and my kids and hubby had completely gone through them by Monday! Grrr.... I will have to double up on those this Saturday!

WW always has a lot of Pumpkin recipes. I cant imagine that JC can't come up with a fitting dessert.

I loved the Classico Chicken Parm and the Hawaiian Chicken Salad. The new Fajita Chicken Salad is GROSS!

I absolutely loved the Silver Dollar Pancakes and Veggie Sausage. I am not a fan of blueberries so the blueberry pancakes are not for me. EVERYONE PLEASE contact JC and request foods you'd like to see brought back and PLEASE request the pancakes and sausage be brought back. They are something almost anyone would like and if people want to add fruit on top then go for it!

There used to be a steak that was AMAZING. Please bring that one back!

I also remember a lemon pepper fish that was really good. I'd love to see more fish. I tried the salmon this week but it was pretty "fishy" tasting and the texture was wierd. Too bad because teriaki salmon is usually one of my favorite dishes.

I was SOOOO sad to hear that they discontinued the Silver Dollar Pancakes and sausage. It was my favorite breakfast and I regularly ordered 4 each week!

I tried the Blueberry pancakes and was very disappointed. The flavor was a bit off. It is great that the sausage remained the same...love that sausage!

I am surprised that JC would chose to discontinue such a universally likeable item. By adding the blueberries to the pancakes, they exclude those people that do not like blueberries (including me). Let those people that like fruit in their pancakes just add them over the top!

PLEASE BRING BACK THE SILVER DOLLAR PANCAKES!!!!!
about three years ago they made the most awesome chicken with some sort of dressing that was to die for..i would order 4 a week....it was a frozen entree.....does anyone remember it??

GREAT IDEA....

Please bring back...


----the apple crisp PERMANENTLY
This can easily be volumized by adding a baked apple and voila and giant bowl of apple pie. What better way to add an apple a day for everyone!

------the pumpkin pie PERMANENTLY
This was so good I served it to family and they loved it

------Mesquite Chicken
the taste is the closest to grilled food on Jenny Craig

I never got the chance to try the apple crisp, pita puffs, lemon fish or beef with Sirloin. I heard they were all very good. My counselor said if everyone complains, they will bring back the old foods. I think almost all of the JC food is good. If it isn't selling, it might be because of the packaging or maybe the food just needs to be improved, instead of eliminated. The bars need improvement. They taste okay, but they need to get rid of the feeling you are chewing sand. I heard in Canada they had protein drinks and honey peanut bars that were really good.
