    Found something I like that I wouldn't spend calories on.

    Coffee drinks. They just don't feel like they're worth it. I like a small number of them, but I like the other things that I do for the calories more. It helps that I've always liked my coffee black. Weirdly enough, I can see myself spending 500 calories on a milkshake on occasion, but I can't see myself spending the same number of calories for a coffee drink even on occasion. This may have to do with the fact that a milkshake is not substitutable but coffee is coffee and black is just fine.

    - Ricecakes or similar, so it may be only 21kcals for one, but if I eat 5 of them that still 100 and I'm still not satisfied from all that air
    - Salad dressing, salt and pepper are good enough for me
    - "lighter" alternatives to crisps, normally not that much lighter, and nowhere near as satisfying
    - most sweets
    - fizzy drinks with sugar, because I like the diet ones just as much, sometimes better

    Sugary cereals i.e most cereals. Not filling and high in sugar/calories for such a minute portion.
    Also hate drinking any sort of calories (apart from alcohol occasionally). You should drink to quench thirst not for taste.

    Wasabi or soy sauce. . . I don't want to be a soy boy.

    Pretty much any drink. I don't drink my calories :) I like to eat them. And I love water, thank goodness.

    I agree with so many who said they don't like to drink their calories. Fruit juice and soda are two things I can live without. I drink two cups of coffee in the morning with half and half. I just have to have half and half for some reason - it makes me happy. I log it and love it.
