    It is VERY similiar to sour cream tasting, but you have to add the right ingredients to make it tasty :)
    People will probably think I'm crazy, but, Greek yogurt. To me it tastes like sour cream. All the other yogurts I like. Just this one for some reason. Maybe it's the brand.

    More of a health food than a diet food, but Bakd Bars. Apparently if you heat the cinnamon bun flavour in the microwave, it'll taste just like the real thing! Funny, as I don't remember cinnamon buns tasting like @ss.

    And Mio water flavours have a gross chemical aftertaste.

    Read this to my husband 'cause the "tasting like @ss made me laugh. FYI - he said the only Mio that didn't leave an aftertaste is the Fruit Punch.

    I'd always rather eat less regular food than more diet food but I got lured into trying those Laughing Cow Mini Babybel light cheese rounds by how few calories they had when I'd see them in friends' diaries.

    It's like eating a lightly-cheese-flavored combination of petroluem jelly mixed with rubber!!! NEVER AGAIN!!!

    The worst part was that I bought the Costco-sized package and had to eat for at least a month (I cannot throw away food).

    Kale chips. Heard everyone raving about them so thought I would make them. Awful! Worse than the taste even was the smell...my house stunk for three days! Omg...I can smell it now... :sick: :sick: :sick:

    Walden Farms Balsamic Vinaigrette Salad Dressing is disgusting!!! However the Sesame Ginger Salad Dressing is actually pretty good.

    Chocolate pudding made out of avocados ........................disgusting!!!:huh:

    WTF

    I think it's really good, actually. I make it with avocado, full fat coconut milk, cocoa powder and melted semi-sweet chocolate. You just put everything into a food processor until smooth and then chill. ****ing brilliant.

    i don't buy a lot of the frankenfood so to speak, but i thought the atkins protein bar and nugo protein bars were some of the worst things i've had. Also, Dannon light & fit greek yogurt--literally dripping with the taste of artificial sweetener. Most of the time I can handle it, but nope, not with that. Also, cottage cheese 'cheesecake'..

    Spaghetti squash, shiitake noodles, cauliflower pizza crust, and any kind of cake in a mug

    All of these except the noodles, taste pretty good when you're low carbing. Spaghetti squash "hashbrowns" are really good.

    Yes. Shirataki noodles. But then they seem to eat just about anything in Japan. There is this one octopus dish that they eat raw. When they pour some kind of flavored vinegar on it---it kind of dances at you--I thought it was alive. Forget what it is called. It's very low in calories though. :laugh:
    It's a squid on top of rice (called ikadon). You pour soy sauce on it. The viral YouTube video was filmed in the city near where I live (Hakodate) ; there's an entire building that serves that kind of food (stuff on top of rice) but it's not all gross like the squid. The dancing squid dish is just a novelty for tourists. I've been to a shop where they serve it, but.......... *turns green* not for me, thanks.

    Also, shirataki noodles taste great in sukiyaki, which I believe is what they were originally intended for anyway. The trick is to let them soak up the soy, sake, and sugar.

    I don't eat diet food.. I eat regular food

    But I can't stand cottage cheese.. *blech!*
    Not a fan of PB2 really either..
    Many of the protein or meal supplement bars/shakes are nasty too. I only like 1 flavor of cliff bars and I don't eat them often. lol

    and I don't like food with fake sugar in it or loads of chemicals generally speaking

    UGHHH I am a carbaholic... any bread that tastes like cardboard is the absolute enemy!

    Oh yeah, and I really can't stand those protein bars. Some of them are completely awful.

    As for foods specific to "diet" brands, I don't eat them so I really don't know about that...

    And this is why I never eat diet food! I don't see why anyone would eat that crap, when with a modicum of thought and planning you can fit delicious 'normal' meals into a moderate calorie diet.

    Absolutely! Every time I cook from fresh ingredients at home, and each resonable portiosn (including my ultra-lux salads with nuts, dried fruits and cheese!) I inevitably come up with something slightly under 300 cals, which suits me fine, because I load up on snacks in between.

    I am a flexitarian and eat a lot of soy based products. For the most part they taste pretty good but then I tasted "soy hot dogs" as my kids really liked Morning Star snack corn dogs. OMG the hot dogs were so gross. Even with ketchup, mustard and relish - I couldn't stand the taste.

    I eat very little prepared or refined food, so I don't have a lot of experience with "diet" food. But I'm with Nomicat77 on the Shiritake noodles. Especially the "fettuccine" style. They are rubbery and gag me, and I do NOT have a sensitive gag reflex. So IMO, they are just icky. The "angel hair" variety is somewhat easier to handle if combined with copious amounts of meats and veggies, but still.... kinda...:sick: .

    I'm putting New Whey protein shots in the "food" category. If I ever tasted baboon *kitten*, I would imagine it tasting similar to this. Worst. Crap. Ever. And Sweet Baby Jesus, the aftertaste!!!! :sad:


    My sides are hurting! Just sooooo funny!

    They were like, meatless meatballs. I gagged, gave them to my dog, so sniffed them and walked away.


    If insects and animals won't eat it..... Just sayin'.......:tongue:

    Chia seeds! Yuckyuckyuckyuck! Bitter and chemically. Almost the nastiest thing I've ever eaten in my life.

    I don't know where you are bing your chia seeds, but they should be tasteless and there should be no chemicals at all.

    2. Tofu Shirataki Noodles...wet noodles, that you have to drain...when you add them to sauce they kind of remind you of what it would be if you dumped spaghetti on wet ramen noodles. Another Hungry Girl suggestion..NEVER AGAIN.

    who would dumps spaghetti on wet ramen noodles? shirataki is made for asian dishes, and pasta is made for italian dishes. Your recipe explains everything. italian sauce on ramen is gross, so why would the shirataki be different? does that mean ramen is gross?

    the bag for the brand you purchased might be labeled as spagehtti or fettucini.... but thats just falling victim to marketing.

    I know where you're coming from, man....but it's the texture that I have a problem with. I love Asian dishes though, and would definitely try them cooked that style by someone who really knew what they were doing.

    I've had flat iron cooked squid before and love it. The dance it did was like dinner AND a show.... But I can't imagine the Shiritake noodles being that palatable no matter how they are prepared.

    Tonight, I made apricot and ginger chicken, served over pearl barley grain. 485 Calories, including the oil it was cooked in. Throw in a cup of veg too, and you have a very nice meal for around 520 Cals.

    Night before, 6oz strip steak, half a mashed sweet potato with butter and greek yogurt, and a cup of broccoli. 600 Cals.

    Turkey bolognese with whole grain pasta and parmesan cheese. 450 Cals.

    Greek yogurt coated baked chicken, spring mix salad with tomato, onions, feta cheese and a balsamic vinaigrette - 470 Cals.

    Home made margherita pizza with home made whole wheat crust and pizza sauce, and real mozzarella cheese - 440 Cals for two slices.
    YESSSS!!!!! Whole key to weight loss is 1) to ENJOY what goes in your mouth that's healthy and 2) maintain physical activity that's fun for you!!

    I've had flat iron cooked "dancing" squid and it's like dinner AND a show. It was good and not even close to the squirmy rubbery texture of shiritake noodles. But I imagine if over or under cooked it might come close. What was worse than the texture of the shiritake was the horrid ammonia-like smell before cooking. It's hard to warm up to a food that ever smelled like an industrial cleaner.:sick:
