Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
There are a lot of foods that, usually because of their serving size, end up being "calorie free" according to the nutritional label on their package. Cooking sprays, which are oil in a pressurized can, are a good example of this because if you use a 1/3 second spray, you'll get no calories, but more sprays will start to add up. You can keep these foods calorie free by sticking religiously to the serving size. There are some other calorie-free "foods" that are made with, essentially, flavorings and water. So, some edible things are calorie free, but just because you can eat them doesn't mean you'll want to. Should you give them a try? The answer depends on what you're planning to eat. Hungry Girl bravely taste-tested four fat-free, calorie-free foods, including the bizarre sounding David Burke's Flavor Sprays, and found most of them to be lacking in more than calories. To find out which one(s) made her list of things worth trying, you'll have to read the reviews.
Can calorie-free foods be good?

Just because they've tweaked the serving size until it has 0.99999 calories per serving they get to toss around phrases like "CALORIE FREE". It just isn't true. The calorie is just an arbitrary amount of energy. A fraction of a calorie is still a quantity of energy. The same goes for "fat free" and "carb free".
