If you’d like to avoid food that’s loaded with fat - watch out for these...

If you watch your fat intake by finding labels reading “low-fat” or “no-fat,” here are some other words to watch for...

 “Crispy,” “creamy” and “tempura” – translation – “lots-o-fat.” Some other fat traps to avoid might be less obvious. A coffee Coolata has 46 grams of fat – twice that as a glazed doughnut. That red tomato sauce might have even MORE fat than the Alfredo sauce – you need to check the label. That seemingly healthy handful of banana chips could have more fat than three Oreo cookies. Even salads can be loaded with fat – avoid the ones that have cheese, croutons or creamy dressing on there.
