I was wondering how a chocolate peanut butter spread could claim to have no calories so I looked up the ingredients:

Ingredients*: Purified water, vegetable fiber, defatted cocoa powder, natural chocolate flavor, caramel color, natural roasted peanut flavor, natural peanut extract, sea salt, corn starch, xanthan gum, lactic acid, sodium benzoate (to preserve freshness) sucralose, vanilla flavor, FD&C yellow #6

Water is first and vegetable fiber is second. So, for the most part it's flavored, thickened water. The serving size is two tablespoons and the label says that is zero calories. Of course, zero can be up to five because manufacturers are allowed to round down. So, two tablespoons may have negligible calories but 1/2 a cup could have up to 20.

Walden Farms seems to have a long list of such products and they are available from Walmart, Amazon, etc. You won't see me lining up for them. I like real food.

I like real food also, so I want to use the most of my kcal limit to eat real food. So If i want any "snacs" like this kcal free will ble good.
By the way, the website also says "0 kcal per 100g"

I've only had their pancake, strawberry, blueberry and caramel syrups, and they're all legit. I've heard the spreads are turrible.

Their salad dressings don't coat the salads. It's like the old Magic Sand commercials. Your leaves come out of the salad instantly dry.

I've found very low calorie items often use heavy amounts of sugar alcohols, which can cause digestive upset in many people, myself included. Personally I'd rather budget for a portion of real dark chocolate than to risk it with an imitation item. I find it more satisfying anyway.

The 2 reviews of the product on the walmart.com site are instructive. The first, which rings with honesty, is basically what @Noreenmarie1234 said. The second "was part of a promotion". For a product that's been on the market for 2 years and is not available in the store, that's a sign that it has not found market acceptance.
