    I am convinced rice cakes are recycled packing peanuts.

    LOL! It's eating air to trick yourself into thinking you are actually getting to eat food.:lol:

    Oh yes and margarine. BLECH. I have to use that (until I make some ghee- one day soon!) for my lactose intolerant son. That stuff is gross. It even smells like chemicals to me.

    OMG- How about rice cakes with FF cottage cheese spread on them. Good grief- the things we used to do to ourselves.

    Anything and everything with Olestra :s .

    Olestra products represent the second most combustible fat-free food group ever (trailing only Polyethylene Glycol, Salmonella, and other modern colonoscopy preps).

    The bowel-activating fat substitute is also known as "sucrose polyester," apparently representing the best of bad food and bad (but eminently-washable) clothing.

    Still available (!) through Amazon :o :

    Mercifully extinct :) :

    Modern uses: Scientific American reported that P&G considered marketing Olestra as an industrial versus gastrointestinal lubricant.

    YMMV

    I remember the old days when I used to buy rice cakes. Ewww! I still think of raw celery and cucumber as diet food. I love them mixed in salads or other dishes, or dipped in full fat dressings, can't take them plain anymore

    I know, I bought a pack of six once, then they all expired. Lol. If I still had it I might use it for baking or something.

    I add coconut oil to Pb2 as a way for my daughter to get MCT's in the morning before school. It's really good!

    Any Light, fat free dairy or salad dressing. Especially FF ranch. So, so terrible. They could rid the world of it and do us all a favor.

    Thanks for giving me way to use it! It has 3 grams of net carb. Do you still use a little water though, or just add the oil only?

    Almond butter & natural PB...not because they taste bad but because they are too good too not overeat & they both tear up my GI tract without mercy.

    Mmm, polystyrene sounds appetizing (sarcasm)...lol. I nominate canola oil as a horrible health food in disguise...really engineered as a lubricant for machinery but no better than vegetable oils.

    I do the same thing! It's my go-to sweet fix. I do add a little water with the CO.

    But omg those Nutrisystem meals! Blech!

    That gave me an idea though... I was gonna try mixing the PB2 with coconut cream, but it looks like I ran out. Oh, well.

    No water. Just CO and Pb2. And if you like peanut butter and chocolate, add some dark chocolate shavings in there too. That's good stuff. I can handle a big spoonful of it without triggering any sweet cravings. And even my sugar burner kids like it.
