hidden calories

'Calorie trap' does seem to exist, but what is meant is the kind of calories that sneak in with supposedly low-calorie healthy foods...

the sunflower seeds and dressing in the salad, the sugar and cream in 'calorie-free' coffee, the things that upset the balance when you think you are making the right choice.
