After all, many restaurants now publish calorie counts, though not terribly accurately, as researchers from <a href="http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc&#038;zu=http://now.tufts.edu/news-releases/nutrition-researchers-examine-restaurants-cal">Tufts University</a> have noted. More comprehensive calorie count requirements, covering a wider range of restaurants, still seem a long way off. Yet eating out can be the undoing of many a diet. Without adequate labeling plus overly large portion sizes, it's easy to overeat at restaurants. You can help yourself a little by becoming acquainted with some of the descriptions that indicate a food is high in fat. Some are obvious; others may be less so. So here's a guide to spotting some typically <A href="http://lowfatcooking.about.com/od/faqs/f/highfateatout.htm">high-fat foods in restaurants</a>. </p>...<p><a href="http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc&#038;zu=http://lowfatcooking.about.com/b/2013/04/17/spotting-high-fat-foods-on-menus-2.htm">Read Full Post</a></p> http://lowfatcooking.about.com/b/2013/04/17/spotting-high-fat-foods-on-menus-2.htm Wed, 17 Apr 2013 23:19:05 +0000 2013-04-17T23:19:05Z http://lowfatcooking.about.com/b/2013/04/11/road-trip.htm <A href="http://lowfatcooking.about.com/od/healthandfitness/a/Healthy-Eating-On-The-Road.htm"><img src="http://0.tqn.com/d/lowfatcooking/1/0/v/M/RawVeggiesBrian-Hagiwara.jpg" hspace="5" border="0" align="right"></a>The holiday season aside, nothing undoes a diet more than a vacation.
