CocoLites: Full of hot air?

Recently my local grocery began selling a product called Cocolites. These crispy, airy, Frisbee-ish discs are basically flour and water. The dough is forced into a machine ensconced behind safety glass and is forcibly expelled at 100 mph, nearly beheading the poor bakery attendant assigned to work the machine. The result, a cross between pita bread and a rice cake, is devoid of any nutritional value whatsoever. And, it has merely 16 calories per serving! If you’re ravenously hungry, these guys will fill you up without filling you out.
