I knew my bacon salad was a great idea.

If I do not want the full oomph, will I be taxed?

I'm doing my part, I avoid everything with "low fat", "lite" or "diet" on the label.

There’s a yogurt based Caesar dressing that is my favorite and it’s reduced fat, not fat-free. I wonder if it has enough fat to provide the effect described here.

I’m sorry but this is the dumbest thing I have ever read. It’s got to be a joke.

Crumbled bacon and blue cheese dressing! Yum!!!

Makes perfect sense to me, a lot of nutrients are fat-soluable, while others are water-soluable.

...or Polonium-210 either...........

I quite enjoy a light Italian. There isn’t much fat, but it tastes delicious.

If the salad is going to be consumed with other items at the meal that do have significant fat, like meat or normal cheese, then lowfat or fat free dressing wouldn’t necessarily cheat you of the good stuff.

It seems that the rule that it is best to consume everything in moderation (unless there is a special reason otherwise) has been proven out again.

Makes sense, although I am dubious about canola oil. Olive oil has been proven healthy for thousands of years. Canola oil was first suggested by the food Nazis, who nearly always prove wrong in the end.

I don’t KNOW that. But I’ll stick with good old olive oil.

Thanks for posting this. After 30 years of misery and having been put on all kinds of diets, including ‘no fat’ (and darn near died at 84 lbs!) they’ve found I am ‘fructose intolerant’..the culprit was sugar, not fat.

Aside from nutrient deficiencies and energy loss, eating too little fat is an easy way to guarantee that you will frequently feel hungry. Fat satiates the appetite. Fat is an essential part of a healthy diet, and healthy fats are good for you.

Eat a balanced diet, control snacking and exercise daily is a recipe that will work for the vast majority of overweight people.

When a product says “fat-free” on the label, you can almost always assume that there’s more sugar and/or corn syrup in it, to make up for the lack of fat. I never buy anything labeled “fat-free”.

I knew fat free dressings were wrong, LOL. Fat free ranch is unbelievably nasty....it’s sweet and gelatinous.

GREEN SH*T IS WHAT FOOD EATS!

My ancestors survived the long walk from Olduvai Gorge to the present and did it without much GREEN SH*T and NO salad dressing at all.

Canola Oil? I grow Canolas in my backyard!
