Yes ... sweet and salty are always a good combo... this may sound gross but I love sweet and salty combos so sometimes like on Fridays or saturday mornings as a treat I'll have an egg sandwhich - usually egg whites, with light cream cheese and light grape jelly on wheat toast, its one of my favorite sweet and savory meals!…

Sometimes I'll put salsa on my salads for lunch and crush 3 or 4 tortilla chips for that mexican taste.

That's what happened to me when I cut a lot of sugar out of my diet, when I would try a full blown sugary desert, it would be way to rich for me and I couldn't eat it. That's what we need a pill or a drink you drink that turns your taste bud and smell sense away from all deliciously FATTENING foods!!!!!!! hahaha ... That…
