I asked this random question to my friend yesterday! If you could buy food for say 4 times the price but have no calories would you do it !

If so how far would you go !? I reckon I would pay double for fast food and not put any weight on haha !

    Depends on what food it is and it would have to taste exactly the same as the real thing.

    I would probably pay $100 for a pecan pie with no calories, LOL!

    I would run from it. It only feeds the over eating mentality.

    Well in theory I would totally pay big money for it and I'm a super sale finding deal hunter (it's actually my license plate) but after a week of this you'll probably be in starvation mode and then all the money is wasted unless you eat this way the rest of your life and then drop down to a skeletal shape. Sorry to put a bummer on your idea, if you invent it, I'll still try it!

    That's why I run! It's free, it give me more calories, AND it makes me fit. Why buy when you can run?

    I can eat what I want now with no real reprecussions, so I wouldn't pay anything.

    I'm too cheap. I'd just do what I'm doing now.

    I figure we're talking magic stuff here, so if that was the case that there's this magical world where food gives you ONLY the nutrition you need, I'd pay the premium.
    Otherwise yah, I'm broke, so I'll stick to the cheap stuff.

    Yea you would have to eat a normal diet, but for treats you could have anything, tasting exactly the same but nutritionally inert!

    But just expensive ! Sorry I didn't make the rules guys

    I wouldn't do it just because I would rather rely on my own self-discipline to be healthy then a free way out. The only exception would be alcohol! LOL. I need to have some fun sometimes and it can be irritating having a light dinner when you want more then one drink.

    interesting Q, Personally I wouldn't buy it. My body needs calories and nutrition.
    Very Good Q!

    I would pay a pretty good price to have calorie free pizza, burritos, desserts, booze, etc, as a supplement to my healthy eating. There are some foods that I really would like to eat more often than I can fit into my calorie budget now.
