I Can't Believe It ('s Not Butter)
Thought a few of you might enjoy the last sentence

If something seems too good to be true, it often is. I Can't Believe It's Not Butter! spray has few enough calories to be considered calorie-free if you use just a few spritzes. However, if you do what most of us do and spray like there's no tomorrow, you can rack up calories and fat grams pretty quickly. Here's the scoop: 12.5 sprays has 10 calories and 1 gram of fat, 25 sprays (1 teaspoon) has 20 calories and 2 grams of fat, and 37.5 sprays has 30 calories and 3 grams of fat. So, while I wouldn't exactly say the stuff is "loaded" with calories and fat, you are definitely better off spraying it as opposed to pouring it on your veggies and potatoes. If you tend to go overboard with the spray, you may want to try using a light butter spread (similar nutritionals but easier to gauge how much you are actually using and how many calories and fat grams you're taking in). Good luck! And in case you're curious, the entire bottle of ICBINB spray contains around 900 calories and 90 grams of fat. YIKES!"
