    The nutrition page is here...

    I don't think it sounds all that bad...although sodium in many of them is a bit high.

    I bought some of the chocolate dip out of sheer morbid curiosity. It literally tastes like a chemical cocktail. How do they get away with selling these things?

    OMG no-calorie peanut butter??? It sounds too good to be true because it's probably made with weed-whacker mixed with Windex...and salt for flavor...

    THE COMPANY mainly makes sauces. dips, salad dressing,etc.. ya know stuff like that so that when u want to add something onto ur food..i should really say (condiments) in the above sentence. but yeah, its not exactly food eat, yes we need carbs,proteins and fat. lets check it out before we say something negative.

    It's been checked out and there's nothing beneficial about it. Any condiments I need a replacement for, I just wont eat. I'll enjoy my full fat mayo, if I want a scoop of my homemade jelly, I'll have it, I'll use real tomato ketchup, etc. Food isn't always for the temporary enjoyment of the tongue. I like to eat to fuel my body with the things it needs and the long term benefits are worth it.

    If it doesn't have calories, fat, sugar, or carbs.. is it still considered food?

    i too think they are playing on the less than xx calories = 0 calories.
    looking at the ketchup (which is my fave condiment) and it lists tomato paste and apple cider vinegar. which i know have calories in them...

    oh and just saw the

    *contains trace calories

    at the bottom.

    Processed food is scary business.
    It's like I would be choosing between cancer and peanut butter.

    I choose peanut butter.

    Their caramel sauce is something awful! It tastes like chemicals and leaves that nasty after-taste in your mouth. I bought it because I was making caramel apples and decided to try to get a "healthier" caramel sauce for my apple, but I have not used it since. Seriously awful.

    I do like their syrup. I don't think it tastes any worse than any sugar free syrup, and actually has fewer ingredients in it than a lot of the sugar free syrups. Don't knock it till you try it.

    asyouseefit: yes I know you must have carbs. I just thought some people might like this. I only tried the chocolate and marshmallow sauces. I used them for dips for my fruit.

    Even though it says no calories,~a part of me thinks there must be some hidden.

    Makes me wonder "what is in it? I was trying to find an ingredient list on the site but didn't see one

    Ingredient lists are a little hard to find, but they are there:

    I guess it's kinda like Coke Zero.

    For those who are criticizing... these food products are all condiments. Which means they aren't meant to replace real food. They are only meant to accompany real food so you can replace the unnecessary crap!

    It all sound great.. Thank you OP for posting the link for the people who want to try it. I, for one, appreciate the thoughtfulness. Just because some of us choose to not eat things like this is NO REASON for everyone to be negative or bash on people who do or want to eat this. It sounds like a decent way of going if you are wanting to cut down on the calories and whatnot from condiments. The only thing that I saw that I found a little bothersome was the sodium amounts.. however, that is typical from processed foods. To each their own! :drinker:
