How can something have nothing in it ?

**DSM4Life** · 07-31-2008, 05:07 AM

These coffee syrups i see in the stores. I look at the labels and they have nothing listed in them . Are they hiding something.

I look at this and it only has 5 grams of sod.

Interesting...I see this where I sometimes get my coffee in the morning and I skip right by them cause I thought they were just pure sugar?

LOL that's really weird. I have this spray butter that's the same way. Nothing in it, yet it tastes like butter....

Can't Believe It's Not Butter spray? That's what I use. There's also a spray out (can't remember the name) that makes popcorn tastes EXACTLY like movie theater popcorn w/ zero cals.

lol... the taste is just all in your head... j/k
I have no idea

**"Maximus"** · 07-31-2008, 05:01 PM

that's interesting bro... how could that be 0% in everything...! I mean, I'm not trying to be too technical about things, but per the conservation of mass/matter, things cannot be created or destroyed... ok, I'll give in to the thought that you may play with things... I don't know, that's just crazy lol!

here's the thing.

it could have 0.99g of carbs/sugar, etc in it.

but

as long as it's actually BELOW %1 food companies can list it at %0.

legal to do!

I know what you mean. I just ate Japanese rice noodles and it had the same nutrition facts, everything was 0% except there were 40g of carbs and .5g of polyunsaturated fat. But it has to legally be correct right?

Well i figured i would give it a try.

Its Gloria Jeans Flavored syrup.
Per 2 tbsp it contains:
cal 0
fat 0
saod 20mg
carbs 1
sugar 0
protein 0

Ingredients:
water
maltodextrin
cellulose gum
aspartame
cirtic acid
potassium sorbate
sodium benzote

I am only going to use 1 tbsp soon so it shouldn't be too bad. Ill give a full review tomorrow

Most of them are but not all. This will be my first time trying one.

**gixxerboy1** · 07-31-2008, 10:15 PM

because chemicals have no nutritional value

**james21** · 07-31-2008, 10:40 PM

but your body still has to dispose of it,utilize, digest, burn it off, etc.....

Remember when Entenmann's was all the rage with their fat free products and people were eating the whole boxes and thinking it was Guilt-Free food.
