THE MOST DISGUSTING DIET FOOD THUS FAR..WHAT'S YOURS???

celery tastes like a**

I thought I was the only one! I also hate celery!

I forgot one things I hate the most of anything!!!!


CILANTRO!!!!
I hate it, anything it touches is ruined for me!

The trouble with all diet foods is that they sell hope, wrapped in a low fat/high protein/low carb wrapper. We all hope one day someone will invent or create a food that tastes delicious, is low in whatever your current food phobia is, and you can eat truckloads of it without gaining, and (although we won't put it on the wrapper) will make you lose weight.

And like Hope, most of these things are better off left in the box.

The Paleo Bread brand was inedible and at $8 loaf...
Jay Robb Tropical protein powder, made me dry heave.

I tried making bread with 100% rye flour once - it looked and tasted like a concrete slab :ohwell:

It makes a much nicer loaf if you use the sourdough method to make it--there are sourdough recipes on the web. I believe you can buy sourdough starter at the health food store. Also, it helps to lighten the loaf if you include some kind of nuts or seeds like pumpkin, flax, sunflower, etc. The sourdough bacteria are good for you and it does not leave yeast by-products in the bread.

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

I second the spaghetti squash. Everyone raved about it so I tried it... never spit anything out of my mouth so fast!! Wasa bread is gross too!

Those "popped" rice cakes... I mistook them for "pop chips" and was unpleasantly surprised :sick:

My contribution? Scan Bran.

I once spent a few months attending a Slimming World group which was led by a tall, willowy, georgous blonde who told us incessently that to be a successful dieter like her (Note: her 'successful weight loss' was all of 4lbs...yes, she was 4lbs overweight once...oh the horror) we had to ingest tons of Scan Bran.

I bought one packet of Scan Bran and can only describe it the following way: Take a very old threadbare carpet, take it along to your local stable and roll it in the little scrapy bits of straw that's left after all the good stuff has been swept away. Cut it into rectangles and bake it and you may come close to what a Scan Bran tastes like.

One day the willowy leader told us that Scan Bran could be used to make crispy 'fake Ferrero Rocher' and she brought some along to demonstrate. We all had to dutifully pop a ball of something that tasted awfully like what I'd imagine you'd get if you scraped up the shavings from a bottom of a hamster's cage, rolled them into a ball and dipped them into cocoa powder.

It is also in no way improved by the addition of low-fat cheese...which is another culinary abomination.

Oh! I've just found a photo of the offending articles made into 'fake Ferrero Rocher' from another diet board...can't you see the almost uncanny likeness to the real thing?? Aren't you amazed?? Don't you just want to sink your teeth into that crispy bran-filled parcel of deliciousness?? Wait...you don't???

ACTUAL FERRERO ROCHER


SCAN BRAN FERRERO ROCHER

Walden Farms calorie free "peanut butter". I put the words peanut butter in quotes because whatever Walden Farms puts in that jar is not, by any means, even distantly related to peanut butter. I don't have very discerning tastes, but it should be illegal to call that sludge peanut butter.

Wladen Farms calorie free marsh-mello creme is what I bought with their peanut butter. I thought mmmm guilt free PB and MM on toast. NOT::puke puke :sick: both jar's went directly into the trash can. My mom bought the W.F. Apple Butter yuck spread. We should have taken it back to the store for a refund, because that stuff was not cheap.

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:

hahaha...too funny

im now giggling uncontroallably...
:laugh:

Almond Milk is GROSS in the first place.

:laugh: Thank you guys for this thread. I just spent my entire shift laughing like a nut and sharing some of the stories with coworkers!

Thursday I spotted a Promax Fit and Crisp Vanilla Marshmallow bar in the grocery store that looked similar to a rice crispy treat with 13 grams of protein. I was excited to enjoy this crispy treat and get an extra boost of protein. I took a bite of it. I had all I could do to not spit it out. The flavor was so gross. It wasn't the chemical aftertaste that got me after swallowing. It just was the chemical taste with crunchy crispy rice. If there was a trash barrel near by I would have spit it out. I am not a fussy eater, and I NEVER throw food out. I am a proud member of the clean your plate club and frugal with my money. I am ashamed that I threw the rest of that $1.50 bar out after only one small bite.

Anything labeled as diet food...

^This...I prefer real food. It's possible to eat healthy, delicious food without eating 'diet food'.

Hungry girl is an idiot. I got her bar drink book one time. It was so horrible! She is a horrible chef!

That's why she's hungry.

Tortilla Factory low carb tortillas. Like eating tree bark.
Substituting cauliflower for potatoes or rice. I've tried it several times, and nobody is fooled.
I Can't Believe It's Not Butter spray. Tasted totally chemical and rancid the one time I tried it.

I like a lot of other things people have posted about, though. I love Wasa crackers. And I've made black bean brownies several times.
