Western Desserts
Western desserts contain a lot of calories, most of which come from fat. In addition, people often like to top them with cream and frosting, which adds even more calories. Consider if you really need an afternoon tea snack; if you've just had lunch, you're better off eating a fruit instead.
Youtiao (Fried Dough Stick)
Youtiao has a high fat content, much like French fries. Each youtiao has 220 calories, most of which also come from fat.
Chinese Sausage
Chinese sausage is high in calories, and excess calories are stored in the body. It also has a high fat content.
Sweetened Fresh Orange Juice
Don't assume that drinking orange juice is healthier than soda. Just looking at the calories, these sweetened orange juices have even more calories and sugar than soda. Even pure fresh orange juice, which takes about three oranges to make a glass, has 150 calories. However, you miss out on the fiber from the orange and the Vitamin B in the pith. Therefore, it's still better to eat the fruit itself.
Grilled Sausage
Sausages are high in fat, sodium, and contain nitrates (which can be carcinogenic in large amounts). Office workers often eat sausages, and pan-frying them increases their fat content even more. Some people love grilled sausages. While a grilled, browned sausage is delicious, it contains carcinogens.
Instant Noodles
Instant noodles are not only convenient and quick, but also tasty. However, they are high in fat, and the soup powder often contains MSG. It's best to eat them as little as possible.
