3) Smoothies - Say it isn't so,  I LOVE me some smoothies!
4) Vitamin or Sports Drinks - Really? Thank goodness Vitamin Water's Zero Lemonade doesn't count.
5) Fat Free Foods - So much for eating a bag of fat free chips
6) Salads - I think we all know that a little lettuce with your Ranch dressing is not the best choice
7) Wraps - Anything wrapped in lettuce has to be deceitful
