The Five Most Fattening Holiday Appetizers
Parmesan Breadsticks They seem innocuous, and they're a lot less messy to eat while standing than some party foods. But think twice before you pick up one these soft-baked breadsticks. They pack anywhere between 190 and 230 calories each, with 9.4 grams of fat. Two of them will do more calorie damage than a grilled cheese sandwich.
But don't let those calorie counts scare you off parties entirely. A good strategy, if you can't resist the high-cal feast altogether: sample one of everything that appeals and maybe a second of your favorites. Then skip dinner.

Comment: Geez, I hope the poster "Highsteaks" reads a peer reviewed medical journal about the risks of eating high fat diets. Yes cutting carbs will cause a temporary weight loss. Eating 60+ grams of fat (I am assuming this person means saturated fat) will cause irreparable damage to the cardiovascular system. Fat is needed by the body in very low amounts; American are fat because of overprocessed foods, to much meat and cheese (saturated fats) and copious amounts of sugar.
Ever wonder why high fat diets are proven risk factors for stroke, heart attack, impotence and obesity?? Eating an excess of any high fat food will lead to weight gain. Duh...!

Comment: Do people really still think eating fat makes you fat? Does this writer have no understanding of basic physiology?
I eat 60+g of fat per day and I'm losing weight at a rate of 1-2lbs per day. Eating processed carbs and sugar is what's made America obese, not fat.
