PIZZA
Eat This:
2 slices Domino’s large cheese pizza with crunchy thin crust
360 calories
19 g fat
Not That!
2 slices Pizza Hut large cheese pizza with thin ‘n cripsy crust
560 calories
24 g fat
Save 200 calories and 5 grams of fat!
In the world of mass-produced pizza, nothing beats Domino’s crunchy thin-crust pie. Eat pizza just once a week, and you’ll save more than 10,000 calories this year—which is a nice down payment on a smaller waist size.
TURKEY SANDWICH
Eat This:
Subway 6-inch Turkey Sub with provolone cheese
330 calories
8.5 g fat
Not That!
Panera Bread Sierra Turkey
840 calories
40 g fat
Save 510 calories and 31.5 grams of fat!
Don’t sweat the meat in the sandwich: turkey, roast beef, and ham are all lean cuts. But Panera slathers its turkey with a thick layer of chipotle mayo and slides it into a heavy, oily wedge of focaccia, so that turkey is a porker. A Subway 6-incher not enough to quell your raging lunchtime hunger? Double up on meat for just 50 calories more.
CINNAMON ROLL
Eat This:
Au Bon Pain Cinnamon Roll
350 calories
21 g sugars
12 g fat
Not That!
Cinnabon Classic Cinnamon Roll
813 calories
55 g sugars
32 g fat
Save 463 calories, 34 grams of sugars, and 20 grams of fat!
OK, there’s absolutely no nutritional value in a cinnamon roll. We said it. But when you just have to have one, take comfort in knowing that Au Bon Pain’s restrained rendition more than halves the calories, sugar and fat found in the Cinnabon catastrophe.
