    For me it was mustard. Now I put it on everything instead of mayo or dressing or ketchup. Depends on how it is made but usually under 5 calories for a tablespoon or less!

    But seeing this thread is making me VERY jealous! I do not know of ANY of these products in the Netherlands!!! GRRRR - No fair. I will have to put in a USA and UK wish list to my friends from these ideas!

    :-) Cheers, Christy

    What foods have you discovered that are surprisingly low cal? I've just found out that Tesco Market value gammon steaks are only 135cals each which I think is fab. Had one for lunch and it was yummy!
    What is gammon steak

    basically it starts life the same way ham does, its cured in brine, but ham is boiled in its own juices.
    gammon is usually grilled

    Hebrew National 97% lean hot dogs. They're 100% beef, and only 40 calories.

    They go well with Village Hearth lite wheat hot dog buns, they're 80 calories and have 7 grams of fiber. They make bread and hamburger buns as well.

    Colbys Salty & Sweet Cinnamon Sensation - cinnamon & sugar kettle popped popcorn It's only 52 calories for a sandwich baggie full...delicious!

    And watermelon is so sweet but only about 45 calories a cup. :D

    I second the watermelon! I'm I'm still super hungry at the end of the day but getting close on my calories, I'll eat two cups of watermelon. Another plus? It's so high in water content!

    Third on watermelon. I've really been taking advantage of the summer fruits, so tastey and so light in calories!

    I was going to say watermelon as well!

    But watermelon contains a lot of sugar, doesn't it?
    And GI is very very high for a fruit.

    Just thought of another one - Walls Solero Exotic are 90 calories and feel and taste like a 'proper' ice cream. Just wish the same could be said for Magnums :noway:

    this is going to sound so weird, but Guinness beer. there's only around 130 calories for a 12 oz serving. i thought it was going to be something like 250...what a pleasant surprise for me! i try to drink this when i can since it takes me forever to drink one.
