More people are consuming vegetable salads. However, do you know that a hamburger or a plate of fries can actually be a healthier choice than a bowlful of salad? Most of the time, salads that are prepared at restaurants or fast-food joints are not the healthiest dishes on their menu.
Salads are generally thought of healthy but this is not always the case, depending on what ingredients you put into it and also on top of it.
Toppings such as bacon bits and croutons contain unhealthy fats and can add a serious number of calories to the meal. Additionally, nuts and seeds are a healthier option but also contain a lot of calories. If you are not particularly worried about losing weight, then there is no cause for concern, as nuts are a good source of protein and essential polyunsaturated fats that the body needs.
