Holy crap.

A co-worker dropped of a tootsie roll mini on my desk as a happy friday treat earlier today. I was just about to eat it, but I hopped on here first to log it and it's 23 cals! What?! 23 cal for this little nugget that I wasn't even going to enjoy?! :noway:

Thank you MPF for stopping me. :heart:

    Yeah, I ate a Hershey's kiss the other day without checking the calories first - found out later - 25. Not worth it to me. I'd rather have a real kiss!:blushing:

    Wow - who'd a thunk it???

    As an aside - for 13 more calories you can have 1 Premium Dark Chocolate Cacao Reserve by Hershey's Truffle. 36 calories in a nice little scrumptious chocolate package - they come 8 in a tin. Plus they keep me away from the donuts after lunch!!

    Thanks. :smile: I've seen those, but never gotten them. I love dark chocolate though, so I'll have to get some.

    Thanks everyone. The old me would have eaten it without a second thought.

    Seriously though, not worth 23 cals at all. :noway:

    I really couldn't be doing what I'm doing without this site.
