    Coffee is a bean, therefore it is a legume, and full of protein and carbs. Do you count eating chili as water too?

    So chili has no calories?

    They have calories, BUT they are Negative calories. So you burn more eating chili than you actually get get from the chili bean...same as coffee.

    Actually, if you're doing water aerobics, you need plenty of carbs for energy, otherwise you'll only have protein in your system for energy and we all know 1 lb of protein weighs much more than 1 lb of carbs and you'll drown.

    So wait...if pizza is a vegetable, does that mean that it has no calories, too? Because all vegetables have no calories, right?

    I thought vegetables had negative calories too. because you burn more calories chewing and digesting than they had. Yay! Negative calorie pizza!!!

    This would be 100% correct. Be careful, if you only eat veggies you'll go into starvation mode

    Actually, you are not far off the mark, as least around my neck of the woods. Years ago, in order for a bar in my city to get a beer permit, local law required them to be able to serve a hot meal on demand. The meal had to be a meat and at least two vegetables.

    Somebody figured out out that pizza met those requirements, and as long as it could be heated in some fashion (this was before microwaves were in everyday use), it fit the criteria. Every little hole in the wall juke joint then started serving frozen supermarket pizzas, some were using little electric hot plates to heat with. They were technically within the confines of the law, so we couldn't cite them for non-compliance.
