Do you lick the bowl?

I was enjoying my apple/peanut butter snack, and ran out of apple with some peanut butter left in the container. I measured and logged the peanut butter before work this morning, so I enjoyed every last delicious calorie, right down to licking the bowl!

Anyone else like to get their calories' worth?

    Never! I er... clean it with my finger and then clean my finger. I'm so gross. But I figure if I'm counting those calories, I'd better eat them all. For science.

    This. Imagine you miss those calories and get into starvation mode?

    Its not fair to waste those calories when there are third-world people starving.
    You owe it to humanity to not let those calories go to waste.

    I'll lick whatever has something on it that I think is tasty. Whether I've counted the cals or not. :tongue:

    (of course I mean spoons, bowls, whips, spatulas....)

    yes, always have, always will. Did when i was little when my mom told me not to. Now I figure i may as well, its a waste of calories and food not to. Besides the dog doesn't need any more bowls to lick clean, does she? I should do it for her. :)
