It's every snack cravers dream diet: eat cookies all day and still lose weight. Jennifer Hudson co-signs on it. So does Kelly Clarkson. Dr. Sanford Siegel's Hollywood Cookie Diet is the hottest (and best-selling) diet craze of 2009.

The premise is simple: eat six 90-calorie cookies a day and a 500-calorie meal for dinner. Except, nutritionists aren't advising we dip into the cookie jar just yet, citing that a diet so low in calories is just another half-baked quick fix.

Sound familiar? The experts aren't saying anything we haven't heard before. Read on for more memorable fad diets we surely tried through the years.
