So many of us want our favorites back but they are never available.

Is anyone at JC corporate listening to us?

I sure do agree with that. JC Corporate is under the umbrella of Nestle now and maybe they are the ones not listening. It is so sad to really like a food and have it disappear. Or how about the foods that are there for such a short time you can hardly try them?

Also why can't the exchanges be printed on the boxes? That would make life so much simpler and JC is supposed to be all about simplicity. If the WW exchanges are everywhere you look, then why not the JC exchanges, especially on Nestle products like Lean Cuisine?

They just upgraded the JC packaging and it would have been such a blessing to look and see the exchanges. Also nice if in the Nutrition Guide found on the website included the exchanges. Again, it is supposed to be about simplicity.

I have noticed that they have begun to put the expiration dates on many of the selections, so I guess that is a start. Maybe they are just 'slow bloomers'! LOL! laugh.gif Totally agree with adding exchanges to the packages.

I believe Jenny only discontinues food if its consistently in the bottom %10 or so of ordered items but I would have to check on that. Of course there will always be someone whose favorite item gets the cut. Temporary items are set for a limited run before they are released and once they sell out that's when they are gone. I think they just take a bit of time to review their popularity, check what markets liked them best, etc and often time bring them back. If their are permanent items on the menu that you enjoy now, chances are at some point they went through the same test and were brought back to stay smile.gif

As far as the exchanges are concerned I can see where your coming from, however (and this is just my own opinion) WW is a program designed to have you count their points, and having the exchanges printed in as many places as possible is beneficial to keeping you following their system.

Jenny Craig on the other hand is a food based program using Jenny Craig food. Its not really designed to have you easily sub out Jenny Craig items for what ever you want with out thinking and only taking a boxes word for it. The simplicity comes from following the program with the foods sent. When your practice for maintenance or are actively maintaining than in order to practice your maintenance skills, you want to get some first hand knowledge on how to judge a food by its components..Aka you can give a man a fish and he will eat for a day, or you can teach him to fish and he will eat forever.

Just my own opinion.
