When it comes to topping your burger, sandwich or salad, there are good condiments, bad ones, and some that fall in the middle in terms of your health, Self reported July 5.
Healthy toppings include:
salsa: which has lots of vegetables and fiber
mustard: which has few calories and certainly far less than most salad dressings, for example
hummus: full of fiber and few calories
guacamole: a good source of healthy fats
So-so choices include:
ketchup: typically loaded with sugar and calories
relish: surprisingly sugary
BBQ and steak sauce: full of sugar and sodium
teriyaki sauce: sugar, sodium, and MSG
Worst options:
sour cream: try yogurt instead of this fatty food
mayonnaise: another fat-filled topping that can be substituted with yogurt or some lower-fat varieties
