WW says that "starchy vegetables" are the only ones you need to point on SmartPoints - but what exactly counts as a starchy veg on the program? Some veggies are starchy but their inherent fiber content makes them still not count for points, and others can be similar but have different rules.
Take garden peas and snow peas - only garden peas are pointed. Why? Because the pod on the snow or sugar snap peas are more complex to digest and therefore make them free on the plan.
Confused?
No problem - I made it simple. Only the items listed on this chart are pointed in their fresh, frozen and even canned form (as long as there is no sugar added). Hopefully it makes it easier for you!
