    I don't use diet/health products.

    However I have tried energy powders for long distance rides and the worst was Sustained Energy. Just ... no. Nasty.

    I haven't tried many diet foods, so I'm drawing from a small group of items, but I tried Halo Top for the first time a couple of weeks ago and found it inedible. I feel so betrayed, MFP Forum. ;)

    Honestly, I usually love them, but I've had 2 pints that tasted horrible for some reason. You might have been unlucky (I emailed them about that issue and they completely missed the point though).

    Quest protein chips. Salted sawdust, I swear.

    Yes! They don't have potatoes in them. So, they don't have the texture of potato chips. It's more like fibrous sawdust chips with a ton of salt. I was supremely disappointed.

    The apple pie Pure Protein bars are also disgusting, as is Artic Zero.

    Dasani sparkling water. So fake in flavor, and it's just gross.

    Arctic Zero - I found it had a slimy texture in my mouth.
    Fat free cheese - it doesn't melt properly. I want my grilled cheese sandwich!

    Dannon Light and Fit Greek Yogurt.
    I was seduced by the low calories, but tastes gross and artificial to me. Threw it out. Bought full calorie yogurt instead.

    I agree totally. Ugh, I thought I was going to be sick after eating 1/4 of one. No freaking thank you.

    Coconut water was also completely nasty to me. I tried it at Costco as a sample and just stood there a moment holding it in my mouth as I could feel my face slowly twisting into some sort of horrified look of disgust while the sample giver was telling me how you could buy a case of 12 for $15.99. I'm literally making the face just typing this and reliving that awful moment.

    Another bad life decision was trying to use spaghetti squash as pasta. Just no.

    Seltzer water. Even the flavored ones, like LaCroix. Too bitter/salty for me. I had such high hopes for them too!
    I almost forgot about LaCroix! I tried one of their flavors at Kroger and ended up waisting 25 cents.

    Oh I forgot about that. Also not a fan of LaCriox -- I almost wanted to like it but just can't

    Low fat spreadable butter. I bought it by mistake and it was disgusting-especially on toast.

    Gosh, I tried that as well. Horrible taste. Maybe the fake sugar. I went right back to the real stuff and just made sure to fit it into my overall calories.

    Oh, yeah. Forgot coconut water. Tastes like BO smells.

    I hated the normal coconut water I tried. Gross!

    I've tried BODYARMOR before. That has some coconut water in it and its not bad.
