My sister sent me a website which was just hilarious. It had recipe cards from the early 70s from WW which were, well lets put it this way. No way I would have lost any weight cooking any of them.
It is www.candyboots.com (http://www.candyboots.com) and hit the link to the ww recipe cards.
Just so funny with photos of the cards. YUM! My personal fav was the tower of frankfurters wrapped around a pineapple.
Kudos to ww for constantly evolving and changing its mealplans to be more palatable to people's taste. So, please don't take this site as a condemnation of WW or criticism because their recipes now are actually quite delicious. It is meant in the spirit of a good laugh.
Cheers,
Carlee

Well, I actually used this recipes to lose 200 pounds and I learned a heck of a lot more about nutrition and eating right than I have with points. The thing is, we had no low fat, sugar-free, fat free, lite etc. products so we did the best we could. Weight Watchers has always evolved with new nutritional facts and I am thankful for that. I don't do well at all on points and find it much easier to do the "old" exchanges.
