Sauce is such an interesting word when it comes to diet, but we can tell you that more often then not it’s a bad decision for your health to include them. Sauce is usually just a fancy name for a “salt and sugar bomb” or “cream bath.” In either case, these fluids of the devil will most likely turn a healthy meal into a scar on your diet. As humans we love two things in our diet: Salt and Fat. It’s evolution, don’t lose sleep over it. So, how do we avoid these demons? It’s quite simple actually, don’t use them!
Sauces or dressings can be controlled in your diet at home quite easily, but they become very hard to avoid when eating out. A dinner for two, can easily mean a meal for four divided by 2, catch my drift? So here are the top 5 ways to avoid literally hundreds of calories. Enjoy!
1) When ordering a sandwich or burger, avoid mayo and ketchup, and stick to mustards and vinegars.
2) When ordering pasta, avoid cream sauces. If you are just craving alfredo.. then eat only half your meal.
3) Just don’t eat anything that says Ranch on it.
4) BBQ sauce can literally kill you (that’s a dramatization of course). Be gentle as you pour it over your tri-tip.
5) Pass on the sour cream as often as humanly possible.
