| I'm not sure if it's bad luck or if I have some seriously negative newsletter karma, but AFTER I finish each week's article, I find the perfect food (or beverage in this case) for it. Now that I just finished the article Diet Soda: The Diet Killer, I found this perfect soda substitute. No artificial sweeteners, no sodium and tastes a whole lot like soda! I liked the two flavors I tried - lemon and orange - however this is available in pure, berry, cran-raspberry or lime that I'm totally dying to try. I found these at my local natural foods store for 50 cents a can. An all around awesome "soda" score! |

| I haven't tried these yet - I just found them online. However, I thought it was a worthwhile thing to put on Calorista given that its 0 calories, no carbs, gluten free, and according to reviews online, tastes much better than House Shirataki noodles. Can someone please write in who has tried these? I'm dying for the dish! |

| There are a lot of flavored waters out there, but none come close to tasting as good as Metro Mint...not to mention the crazy number of good flavors they offer, such as cherrymint, peppermint, lemonmint, orangemint and this featured one and my favorite, chocolatemint. Nobody else has a chocolate mint flavored water that I know of, and it is TASTY. Metro Mint waters do not contain any artificial sweeteners or sodium, just pure natural taste (which is why these cost more). These are a great way to convince yourself to drink more water if you are having a hard time - delicious and good for you! |

| Wow, zero calories for 5 sprays...I Can't Believe It's Not Butter (ICBINB) spray has 4 calories for 5 sprays, which adds up to about 15 calories for a normal serving size. Unfortunately, Smart Balance doesn't publish the number of calories for 15 sprays of this, but we know that it has to be less than ICBINB. This spray butter does not have any hydrogenated oils (which means no trans fat), while other butters, like Brummel & Brown does. With a great, rich buttery flavor, this is my new top pick for a butter substitute. |
