negative calorie foods

What I was wondering is if this is true do you count the calories in these foods towards your daily calorie count?

Your body has to warm it back up to be used, usually room temperture water is just fine, for the body wise. We just liek it cold cause it "feels" good. I think any raw veggie carrots, celery, etc. has negative calories, cause one its cold, and 2 its raw. -------------- The following, has not be approved by the FDA or FT, it was not meant to diagnose,treat,or prevent any diease(s) Please consult a moderator or doctor before using any of the suggestions or comments.
