Americans love dining out. In fact, pre-COVID, the average person was eating out 2-3 times per week. There are drawbacks to become aware of. Some restaurants are notorious for adding extra fat, salt and sugar to make foods taste better and keep you wanting more. The portion sizes are often enough to feed two or three people.
Follow these 5 tips to support your goals of eating healthier when dining out:
1) Stop eating when 80% full.
2) Go “Plant Slant.”
