I’ll have my wine and drink it too.

by Missy on June 24, 2010

Do you hear that?  Someone in Napa is crying. 

So, I recently heard there’s a Weight Watchers brand wine in the UK.  Points value = 1.  Hmm?  I can do diet soda, low calorie cheese (maybe), but diet wine?  That hurts my feelings.  Do you think it’s just colored water?  Flavors include: zinfandel rose, refreshing rose, purely pink, smooth red, and fruity white. 

I love a good British import–Cadbury, David Beckham–but you will not catch me drinking 1 point wine.  God forbid it ever appears on menus.  Can you imagine asking the sommelier to go fetch a bottle of their finest “purely pink?”  Mmmm…the bouquet smells like something familiar…..Crystal Light?

What are your thoughts?  Anyone tried it? ~Your friendly wine snob, Missy

I may not be in Napa but I’m crying! That is terrible news. Wine isn’t even high calorie in the first place. GET A GRIP PEOPLE!
