:grumble: OK....SOoooo I decided to try this so called " ZERO CALORIE" Chocolate Dip from Walden Farms
it has

0 Calories
0 Fat
0 Cholesterol
0 everything basically....except sodium i believe was 35mg per serving of 2 tbs

IT WAS ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!! I dipped all my strawberries in it :blushing: :blushing:

not to mention....stuck my finger right in the jar and ate it raw :blushing:

I was just curious if anybody else had tried this? I have seen mixed reviews on some websites...How could something so good...be 0 calories??

( i do understand that there are "trace calories" but even that is less than 5 calories per serving which is AWSOME!!

Need some feedback from my wonderful and supportive MFP buddies!!!

    Sounds good to me! But Clean eaters on the site would object. Is it available at the grocery store?

    I picked up a jar of it next to the strawberries/ veggie section at my local supermarket Schnucks.

    It was kind of pricey, but its worth it!

    I looked at their website and they have A LOT of other products with "zero calories" as well!!!

    loooking forward to trying these..

    anyone else tried this?

    umm sounds weird. i would think even natural ingredients like fruits have a lil calories...nevertheless, interesting that they have calories-free products.
