"Fat Coke" is a British thing, just meaning not-diet. Just good old fashioned Coca Cola is a "Fat Coke" in England.
I am British and lived here all my life and never heard coke called full fat coke!!!! I even worked in a macdonalds in my teen years (p/t while at college) and in a town pub for many years so I have sold plenty of glasses/cups of coke over the years0 -

More kale for me! More than anything else, I think kale truly is a super food. Maybe the superest of all.0 -

I live a very rural area in the US and I've heard "full fat coke". But my favorite is the old men than call it "high test" which is also what they call premium grade gasoline.

Even though I love them...any sort of latte. 500-700 calories of caffeinated bliss just isn't worth it. Neither is most candy and sodas.0

Is it called pop? That's what the weirdo northerners call it here.
Yeah because I'm the only one that doesn't read the entire thread word for word I'm going to say at least two people per page.HardcoreP0rk wrote: »
well i edited it to 'non diet soda' is that any better?! i mean we dont even call it soda here so how am i supposed to know
Canadian here, definitely call it pop! Didn't realize this was different till we went to Florida and the guy mocked us for calling it pop.
OH sorry, SEEEWWWDAAAH.
Lmao

I've always called non-diet 'full fat'. And if I couldn't have a full fat coke from time to time some of my hangovers would be a lot worse!
Things not worth the calories? Ice cream, breakfast cereal, cheap sausages, reduced salt and sugar baked beans, most microwave meals, I could go on for pages.0 -
Desserts masquerading as coffee drinks
Donuts unless they are fresh
Plain white rice
Cold breakfast cereals that leave me hungry 20 minutes later
Almost anything from a cafeteria (usually unnecessarily breaded and fried and loaded with salt)
Almost all fast food and food from chain restaurants (same reason)
Cheap chocolate
Grocery store cakes and cookies: so many calories yet so flavorless0 -
Ugh. This monstrosity I just downed. LOL. I totally just blew half of my carbs goal and more than my sugar goal ... before 10am.
Dunkin Donuts - Lg. Decaf Rocky Road w/ Extra Creamer, 24 oz.

Where are these 700 calorie lattes? I've NEVER had a latte come in at over 200 cals. I'm starting to think you people have secret recipes that include bone marrow or something...

Donuts.
Fast food (although I favor some "healthier" options).
Cereal (my kryptonite - I can never get enough of it!).
Drinks with calories, aside from my homemade iced coffee (150 calories). I can't fathom the idea of drinking chocolate milk although it is my favorite.
Shakes and most ice creams aren't worth it (I like getting a soft serve vanilla ice cream cone on occasion).
Girl Scout Cookies.
Alcohol
Macaroni and Cheese (I'll eat a whole box and still want more)

I've never had a fresh bagel.
For me, I had to watch my carbs in the beginning of this, so I stopped eating them. I just didn't miss them enough to reintroduce them.
Oh, you've missed out in the real experience. Way back in the dark ages I lived in New York for a while and worked right across from a bagel shop. I had a bagel and tomato soup for lunch every day. No regrets.
Having a real NY bagel is on my bucket list 0 -
zebracakes. I F'N love them. but choose not to waste my calories on them.

Sorry, soda doesn't have FAT. Sugar yes, fat no.
Here's my list - because I get ya on some of them.
- Grocery Store made cake and icing - yuck.
- Bagels
- Fast food (I just don't like it)
- Candy bars they sell in the grocery store check out. If I'm eating chocolate it better be high class stuff!
This list could be my list! Completely.

A lot of cookies, soda pop, candies (such as Reese's eggs, yum -- an 18-gram piece is 90 calories
). Most things like that are too small of a serving to be worth it on a regular basis. I love cheese cubes -- but since it's very easy to go overboard with them I put them on the "not worth it" list. I find pre-sliced cheese much easier to fit in my calorie goal for the day. 0 -
Beer isn't worth it, but you will have to pry most hard liquour out of my cold, dead hands. I don't eat candy because I don't enjoy it (but I do love chocolate). Whole wheat bread, and a few other things I'm sure.0
-
baked goods that either I or a respected source did not make. I cannot tell you how many times I have bitten into a less than worthy baked good.0
-
I find that if you eat slowly, a proper fresh bagel is two servings if eaten with eggs or a full fat schmear. I used to wolf down a whole one and then need a nap, but slowing down has got me getting the point that I'm done at half now.
Store-bought sandwich bread is not worth the calories to me right now. Crusty, chewy bakery bread? Yes, please!0
