THE CALORIES LISTED ON THE CAN TELLS US THAT THE AMOUNT PER SERVING IS ZERO.
That is right ZERO! Then why is the Diet Lady asking such a mundane question? When you read the nutrition facts on the spray can of Pam it states 0 calories . You get so pleased and excited that you do not look any further. (You did not notice that the serving size was 1/4 of second spray).
Well my friends, when you turn the can 1/4 to the left it tells the 'whole truth' . It is not a zero calorie product like water or diet soda. If you spray the Pam for a full second it is 9 calories.
This warning does not pertain to 95% of us. I love the non-stick cooking sprays and save hundreds of calories through the week by using them. The following story is a conversation I had with a Diet Masters member who was very frustrated because she was having trouble losing weight while she was being careful and even wrote everything down and counted the calories.
She had even temporarily stopped going to restaurants. In the course of the conversation she told me how she never used oil in her cooking but used a lot of Pam as it did not have any calories. She sprayed it on everything. I asked how much she used, and she said that she bought the small 8 ounce cans....and used two of them every week.
I use one of the cans about every 8 weeks....That would amount to 161 calories a week.. Keep in mind that I am cooking for two. EACH CAN HAS 143 SERVINGS AT 9 CALORIES EACH (1287 calories).
MATH for one 8 ounce can of Pam or a similar product.
1/4 of a second of spray.....0 calories
1 second of spray................ 9 calories
15 seconds of spray..........135 calories
2-8 OUNCE CANS........2574 calories

PS..The member from Diet Masters was cooking for herself. She came to my home and I gave her a cooking demonstration on how to use the cooking spray with a light hand and get excellent results.
