    I'm honestly surprised people don't realize fish oil has calories. Any kind of oil is going to have calories because it's fat. Fish oil is not a vitamin, it's (mostly) omega 3 fat.

    Also, I've learned that just because a package says something is 0 calories doesn't mean it actually has no calories. Anything less than 5 calories a serving is allowed to list 0 calories (in the U.S. at least). So tea and coffee do have calories, but very minuscule amounts.

    But I log even small things mostly to better track potassium, iron, fiber, and other nutrients. I agree it isn't going to make much difference in calories.

    The 0 calorie stuff is my pet peeve. If I'm using 3 packets of 0 calories stuff, it's probably over 10 calories, and I'd like to be able to log it properly, but I can never find the correct info!
