I had a great Tazo (I think) Mojito-flavored iced tea with 0 calories. Next time I tried a different flavor--then noticed at the end that it was 30 calories per serving--and 2 servings in a bottle. One mile walked for nothing!
I love Sobe flavored water, and figured since it doesn't have calories, other brands don't either. Not true.
Just had a diet Orange Crush, and didn't check the label since diet Sunkist is 0 calories. Turns out it's 30 calories, and the first ingredient after water is sugar--meaning insulin release. Bummer!
Is this a trend?

I've had to carefully check the labels for other reasons, since I can't have any aspartame. But yeah, it seems a lot of diet soft drinks have a small amount of sugar in them. I'm not sure if it's because they're trying to go more "natural" or for a certain flavor or what.

Weird about the diet Orange Crush -- I've got mine in my hand and mine has 0 calories, and the ingredients are carbonated water, citric acid, acacia gum...no mention of sugar. Maybe mine is different because it has splenda in it???

Bummer, though...makes me want to check my labels every time, and not to take things for granted...

Great post
