Tempted by food to snack on at a fair or carnival this summer? If you don’t want to totally blow your diet, should you order nachos or fried mushrooms? You might guess that the mushrooms are the worse choice since they’re fried, but think again. Half the calories in the nachos come from fat, which can ruin your waistline. "Choosing the mushrooms saves you 465 calories and 30 grams of fat," explains Keri Gans, registered dietitian and author of the book The Small Change Diet.
