Okay, I'll take your challenge. Here is a "snack" I've had several times over this past summer:

I call them "jalapeno poppers" and they are hot if you aren't used to them. But I like hot. And they make me drink lots of water. Also, the capsaicin in the hot peppers help "speed up" your metabolism and has other positive effects on your body. Believe it or not, hot peppers like jalapenos are great for your digestive system.

Best of all - no carbs.

Not "NO" carbs. Jalepenos have trace amounts. .78 carbs per 15 slices, I saw, from a jar in the fridge.
