So what's the nastiest or most disappointing packaged 'diet/health' food you've had?
for me it was Designer Protein's cookies 'n creme protein powder. I swear, the stuff tastes just like liquefied play-doh

Quest bars. *runs and hides*26

This. Specifically pumpkin spice Quest bars. Terrible taste, with the texture of wet sand.5
-
The blueberry-flavored "No Cow" protein bar. I couldn't even finish it, one bite was enough.
Coconut water. It tasted how I imagine a mixture of sweat and vomit would taste.17 -
Dannon Light and Fit Greek Yogurt.
I was seduced by the low calories, but tastes gross and artificial to me. Threw it out. Bought full calorie yogurt instead.11 -
Zero Calorie Peanut Spread from Walden Farms. I'm not sure what exactly it was, but it was slimy, sort of brown, and made me want to vomit.6
-
Arctic Zero. It was a milkshake flavor or something, can't even remember. I've tried to forget everything about it.17

Oatmeal, bananas, Quest bars0

I'll second that. I wanted to like it, but it really just takes like frozen flavored water. Kind of like making hot chocolate with plain water and way too much water.10 -
Fat free anything. Ill find a way to fit in the real deal or forget it.7

Shiritaki noodles!19
-
Most greek yogurt. So far the Tillamook 2% is the only kind I like.2
-
Birthday cake Combat Crunch protein bars. Ugh. I gagged on the first bite, and threw it away.0
-
Lean Cuisine Pot Stickers. UGH!4
-
Same on the Quest bars and Arctic Zero. I'll also add Pure Protein bars to that, as well.3
-
Those veggie souffles in the frozen food aisle -- those garden delights things. No seasoning whatsoever, and the texture was like someone chewed the veggies up for me and spit them out.4

Soy cheese yuk9

Coconut water
spaghetti squash
miracle noodles
walden farms
arctic zero

Most protein/meal bars. The only ones I seem to like are the Luna brand. Even with those, I am picky about flavors.3
-
Nothing. Can't say I've ever fallen for a special type of fad diet food. I did attempt to bulk on my roommates weight watchers wonder cookies though, not too bad.1

Pro Yo frozen yogurt.
This by far is yuck!!!

Oh, yeah. Forgot coconut water. Tastes like BO smells.16 -
Opti Bar Cookies N Cream. All quest bars.1

Agreed! I feel like gagging just thinking about those noodles. Gross!5 -

Cauliflower
Quark0 -

Campbell's mushroom soup. Everything about it is wrong. texture, taste, etc.3
-
Weight Watcher's or any Fat-Free cheese. I dunno what the rubbery component they are using to replace the fat in real cheese, but it's a caustic, nasty, salty-yet-tasteless, vile product.2
-
Not really a diet/health food, but I am taking issue with these graham style animal cookies claiming "gluten free has never tasted so good."4
