Does this have calories? I want to believe it doesn't.. But I've been enlightened by seeing people log it. I don't have a label with calories on the back of my peppercorn bottle. 5 calories isn't much.. But it's enough to log if u have it on just about everything like I do!!

    I believe a tablespoon has 15 calories.

    I never count it in as it's pretty hard to have even 2 calories' worth as it's so strong! Same for Tabasco and vinegar.

    If you're eating enough to have to log it, God bless your colon!

    I do use a ton of it lol. I made blackened swordfish for my lunch tomorrow and used probly a whole tablespoon in the rub! Crazy when u have to think about spices. Most people I know don't count it tho. :)

    That's another issue too! I've seen it being logged as so many different calories worth per tablespoon. Prob not that important even if it is 15 calories.. Just kinda blew my mind when I saw some ppl are logging it!
