    I've heard that people who consume large amounts of artificial sweeteners actual end up eating more. Also these fake sugars can lead to insulin resistance...... hello diabetes!

    I consumer large(25+ packets) quantities of artificial sweetners a day and it does not lead me to eating more. Where did you hear this at. Some sort of reputable study?

    I watch for sugar and calories and sodium - I never read packages before using MFP and I am amazed at the sodium content in most frozen foods - it's scary. I use Splenda but for the most part I drink water, with an occasional Diet Coke :)

    Anything that reads like a science experiment.

    Haha, I actually don't mind it. Have to spice it up though. And depends on what it's going "on" but I'm all for experimenting in the name of decent calories vs protein foods

    This.

    While there are things I don't like, and things I don't generally eat, there is no one ingredient that I will say "no" to.

    Processed foods with too many ingredients, artificial sweeteners, food dye, just to name a few. When looking at recipes if it has too much added sugar I'll pass by it, too.

    Artificial sweeteners because I have yet to taste one that isn't totally awful. And, no, stevia is not a special snowflake exception, all the sweeteners start as plants, from sugar to splenda. Except sugar actually tastes good. Splenda/aspartame/stevia? BLERGH.

    Anything else is fair game until I learn that it tastes bad. Hoping that someday I'll get over visible bug fear (because I know I've eaten bugs and their bits unwittingly) because they are an awesome source of sustainable protein.

    Sugar, I do my best to keep sugar out of my diet. Also, I try to stick to organics and fresh food.

    Anything that says low fat..but not really for nutrutional / dietary reasons. Was having a bad day once, decided to buy ice cream..I dont buy it all that much.. saw a flavour that looked interesting, but it said low fat. I got annoyed, cause I was like, I had too bad a day to not even get all the fat in my ice cream!! Kiddo and I now joke about that.

    But my favorite ice cream now is the Trader Joes Soy bars...which is about as low in fat as you can ever possibly get. Theyre not even really ice cream. Because Im a hypocrite, thats why! LoL but I still shirk from anything with low fat on the label.

    Trans fats. Ugh, I bought microwave popcorn w/out looking at the label one time--7...SEVEN grams of trans fat per serving! Never again.

    High sodium. Especially if it's something I can pretty easily make myself with less sodium, or has a tasty low-sodium version, i.e. soups, canned beans or tomatoes (all come in low/no sodium versions for the same price).

    As far as sugar free and/or low/no fat foods--eh, it depends. I like nonfat yogurt, but despise low fat cheese. Nonfat creamer is okay, but never fat free ranch dressing (blech). And you can have my Diet Coke when you pry it from my cold, dead, and refreshed hand :p

    Palm oil. It's horrid that companies are still using it and devastating orangutan habitat when there are perfectly viable alternatives.
