    An entire chocolate chip muffin from Costco. 700 calories! And it wasn't good!

    A piece of store bought chocolate cake that I thought would be so worth it...turned out to be mostly shortening-infused icing and cardboard cake. Horrible waste of (probably) 500 calories that I had spent the day saving up for!

    A Quest peanut butter cup. Chalky at best. And for some reason I just kept eating it. I think I kept waiting for it to taste better...:ohwell:

    I agree on this one. I LOVE me some Reeces PB cups! When i saw Quest made one i thought it would be delicious like their Cookie Dough and Oreo. OMG i needed to drink sooooo much water just to be able to finish them!

    I think this is what the OP is talking about, rather than a standard creme egg

    These are them!i couldn't remember what they ere called as I didn't buy them myself, it was thrust upon me, and felt like I had to eat it, that's why I said it was a ery quick 200 cals, I would have rather ate 2 x freddo chocolate bars instead.

    Aw, some times things, especially chocolatey things, are just too hard to resist! For me it was a magnum ice cream bar.... but now there are none left in the fridge, so it's okay! :P

    I ate a double tree chocolate walnut cookie earlier and then found out it had 310 calories. It was really good, but is have passed if I'd realized it had so many calories.

    Yes me too. I had 3 beers last night that I didn't need which led to eating too much of the cheese platter, BBQ sausages and home made rogan josh curry. I wasn't hungry and would have been perfectly happy drinking a couple of soda waters. I really am going to have to learn to say "no thanks" when people offer me beers and high calorie food I don't need.

    In N Out Burger. There is only one near me. Its about an hour drive. I happened to be near there for a festival and stopped because of all the hype. I haven't had fast food or burgers in many months. It was horrible. The pain for the next two day was horrible too. Never again!

    theres a reason its called In N Out :)

    Calories are only wasted if you don't use them. :P

    An oversized everything bagel this morning. It was totally mediocre and made me feel bloated later. Should have had a doughnut for the same calories!

    In the summer I had a mini peanut butter fudge milkshake from Sonic on one occasion, and a mini peanut butter & jelly shake on another. I wanted to see what all the hype was about, and I still don't see it. They were small, thin, sickeningly sweet, and were close to 800-900 calories each for what I remember. I could get a much larger (and better) milkshake from Chick-fil-A for that.
    Pretty much any bakery item, though.
    Starbucks' pastries are delicious, for instance, but for what most bakery treats provide in calories, it just isn't worth being hungry and feeling lethargic afterwards.
    Ice cream cake is also a waste, now. SO many calories for such a small serving size! Same with movie theater popcorn, good, but simply not worth it! I'd rather take plain popcorn or frozen yogurt and enjoy an entire container of it for the same calories.

    Poptarts. A serving is ONE, which is just evil and they're not even filling. They're like the potato chips of the breakfast world.
    But my biggest disappointment was these little off brand fig newton things. I had three before I thought to look at the nutrition info. They were 70 calories each.
    It's my fault for eating them but I was still pretty upset.

    Angel wings, I just wanted to cry when I saw the calorie count
    Either I'm in the dark about food in your area, or you're one sick, evil person.
