I have a request. Trader Joe's has decided to stop carrying SMUCKER'S diet cranberry  beverage from juice concentrate. There are so few items we can drink. This is 1 that I have loved for the past 5 years. For 8 oz there were 20 calories, with 3 g of sugar. I called Smucker's tonite to find out where I could purchace it. Unfortunetly it was made specfically for Trader Joe's only. If enough of us contact Trader Joe's and Smucker's maybe we could get it on the shelves again. Talk to their customer support reps. Marketing and retail.

copy of letter i sent to TJ's tonite

I was told last night you will no longer carry Smucker's Cranberry juice from concentrate. After contacting Smucker's, I was told that they made the product specificatelly for Trader Joe's and noone else. I cannot go to another vendor to purchase it.
I had gastric bypass 5 yrs ago, so the fact that there were 3 grams of sugar, only 20 calories, and 5 grams of carbohydrates made it my beverage of choice. I am active in my local WLS community and I often take other patients to Trader Joe's to go through the store, reading labels and learning how to adjust to our new way of eating healthy. There are many products that I endorse as healthy and promote Trader Joe's as a gastric bypass Friendly store. Hope to see it on your shelves again soon. Thanks for your replay.

Elissa - I am sorry to hear about that Smuckers thing.

Have you tried the Ocean Spray SUGAR FREE water mixers?  I buy their stuff at Walmart - and it's priced reasonably.

I love their Ruby Red Grapefruit which has 0 carbs.

I also love their Cran Grape flavor.

Good luck and let me know if you've tried the Ocean Spray stuff and what you thought of it.

Thanks for the info. Next time I'm near a Walmart I will defintely check it out. I do drink the crystal lite red grapefruit. To tell you the truth I only look at sugar and protein. I never got into calories or carbs. I still don't eat that much. I am 5 yrs out now. Still loosing since November I upped the exercise and stopped grazing. Lost 25 lbs. Had my 5 yr checkup today. Labs good. Dr happy. So am I. ((HUGS)) Elissa
