    No such thing as no calorie, per se, but there are certain foods that are extremely low calorie. Celery comes to mind for me, but I'm sure there's more.

    Well, in Japan, there is a no calorie jelly. I used to eat it, it is pretty good... has lots of flavors. :) But idk how it would turn out if you only eat that tho. :s

    Ice.

    That's about the only no calorie food. Most non-starchy vegetables are very low in calories and you can pretty much eat as much as you want without worry.

    pickles yo!

    technically not zero, but so little energy is gleaned from them that the label does read 0 cal.

    Zero calories per serving, that is. If the suggested serving size has less than 5 calories, they're allowed to list it as zero. However, if you eat half the jar, you're still eating at least 40 calories or more.

    This is true, but both prepared mustard and pickles have large amounts of sodium, which cause water to be retained by the body, which limits weight loss

    Hey,

    There aren't 'no calorie foods' because a calorie is a way of providing energy to the body which all food does :)

    But like the other guys have said keep up with the veggies in particular because they are low in calories and have a lot of nutritional value xxx

    Thanks everyone for the answers. As much as I love food, I never pay attention to calories, but didn't think there were any "no" calorie foods. Just thought I'd ask anyway. :)
