Sugar, fat and salt seem to be the three things that taste good.  So, when one is reduced, the others are increased in processed foods.

Take veggie dip for example.  In order to make the low fat dip taste good, they increase the sugar in it.  So, you get less fat but more sugar.  Like wise with salad dressings.  The no fat kind often have a high sugar content.  So, even though you are trying to eat healthy, you have to read the labels.

Think that you are eating healthy because you ordered a salad at your fast food restaurant?  Guess again.  They may have gotten rid of the calories but they have made up for it with salt.  And, that turkey bacon may be lean but it is loaded with salt.

So, if you have high blood pressure, high cholesterol and type 2 diabetes, you have to decide on the lesser of the three evils.
