    There is nothing I will buy that makes any of these claims. I'll just eat meat and/or fresh fruit and veg. If I decide to have something else, it's going to be the best tasting thing I can afford, not some neutered, bland excuse for food.

    I do have to admit, those Skinny Cow caramel squares are good. However, I hate Nestle, so I won't buy them anyway. 365 Whole Foods chocolate, however, well I just have to stay out of that aisle!

    Butter and cheese. I would rather go without than have a low fat or cal version of either one of these.

    Cheese. If I have to have margarine instead of butter, that doesn't faze me.

    I don't compromise on any foods that I eat. And I certainly don't drink crappy beer.

    The only diet thing I consume is diet soda. The rest is "real".

    I couldn't quite put my finger on what was wrong with the smell/taste but that's it, mystery solved.
    definitely won't compromise on reduced/low fat versions of any dairy of any kind, or bacon. i also still like to use full fat ground beef for burgers, as i find them dry otherwise (a bit of real butter in the middle helps too!)but i will use lean ground beef for putting into tacos, chili etc since the seasonings add back in the missing flavour.

    Potato chips for me. Baked chips taste like crap. Give me my regular UTZ.

    Half and half in my one cup of coffee a day. I gave up the sugar in it, but will not give up the cream. I mean have you ever tasted fat free half and half?!? There should not even BE such a thing!

    Pasta. I don't eat it often but when I do I want the plain ol' normal kind, not other grains or vegetables parading around as pasta. I love veggies but they're not spaghetti and no amount of spiralling or grating will change that for me.


    And bacon. Because bacon makes everything better. Seriously.

    I do not purchase any 'diet' foods. For me, the decision to eat only regular food within reason and balance has worked to be nearing the half-way mark to my goal.

    I refuse to touch anything diet, low fat, fat free or sugar free. They usually mean chemical *kitten* storm. I'll either just go without or enjoy it in smaller quanties.

    AGREED!!!!!! plus the taste is not nearly as satisifying....i'd rather workout an extra 10-15min over a diet or sugar/fat free anything...
