Calories, fat, nutrients: What is actually there in the food?

Hunger! Should I take the Hot Crispy Chicken Wrap? Or a bagel with salmon? Or rather the Caesar's Salad, which is certainly quite easy? Not so easy to decide. Especially because you do not know what's inside. How healthy are these snacks? Here is our snack check.

Whole grain bagel classic with cream cheese

12 g fat, 380 kcal

From Coffee Inn. The bagel has little fat. The tablespoon of cream cheese cream on it but all the more. Tastes super creamy, but offers little vitamins, because vegetables are not provided here. Special plus: fiber in the wholemeal bagel fill you up.



Bagel with cream cheese and salmon

6 g fat, 357 Kcal

From Coffee Inn. Is not that awfully fat? Half wild, it's just ten grams of cream cheese (about two teaspoons full) on the yeast dough. Please enjoy! Salmon contains healthy fatty acids. Another plus: Two lettuce leaves and a little onion are better than nothing when it comes to bioactive substances.

Tuna Wrap

35 g fat, 467 Kcal

230 grams. From Kamps. Hard to believe what comes together here with fat. Already in the wheat flat there are seven grams. The remaining 28 grams provide tuna sandwich spread with salad mayonnaise and herbal cheese cream. That makes the role irresistible, but as fat as a currywurst. Comforting: Tuna contains healthier fat than sausage. Another plus: There is really a lot of salad in this snack. Tasty and healthy - it may be fatter.



Hot Crispy Chicken Wrap

30 g fat, 549 Kcal

200 g. From Burger King. What a pity! Sounds so good: tortilla, spicy Cajun sauce, some iceberg lettuce and lean chicken. But then: chicken in a cornflake-breading - nice crispy, but unfortunately very fat! And in the sauce is also oil! If it were at least a few more salad leaves ...

Caesar's Salad with Caesar Dressing

46 g fat, 520 Kcal

200 g; From §Fit for Fun "/ Minimal. Cheese in the salad, oil and anchovy paste in the dressing - clear that this can not be low in calories. But 46 (in words: forty-six!) Grams of fat for the bowl ?! What the hell, who Caesar's Salad stands and loves exactly this combination: crisp, slightly bitter-tasting romaine lettuce and Parmesan cheese, crunchy croûtons and spicy dressing, plus the extra charge of Parmesan calcium - no cheese has more.



Summer salad with American dressing

12 g fat, 163 Kcal

200 g; from "Elsdorfer" / Minimal. Very good: half of leafy lettuce (endive, frisée, radicchio), supplemented with corn and cherry tomatoes. Plus 50 milliliters dressing. A roll to it, and the lunch for hot days is perfect. Our tip: It is even lower in fat. Buy two salads (for your colleague the same), omit the American dressing and take instead Italian dressing (also available from "Elsdorfer"). This is a 100 ml cup, but it has only 10 grams of fat in total? Make 5 grams of fat for each of you. Other sauces from the program are not so lean: yogurt dressing has 32 grams / 100 ml, French 34 grams / 100 ml and garlic 40 grams / 100 ml.

Tomato Mozzarella Sandwich

26 g fat, 453 Kcal

206 g. From Mike's Sandwich Market. Tomato! Mozzarella! A wonderfully light summer snack! Because of: The bread is spread with pepper salad cream and oily pesto on the tomato. And the mozzarella - not a lightweight. Nevertheless, a plus: tastes wonderful after summer and also satisfies the big hunger.

Veggi sandwich

14 g fat, 318 Kcal

190 g. From Mike's Sandwich Market. It does not work without fat: bread with peppermayo and cream cheese. But then a vitamin bump: cucumber, tomato, iceberg lettuce, peppers and carrots. The sandwich for a good conscience.

Blueberry Muffin

10 g fat, 252 Kcal

90 g. Instead of fruit in between a blueberry muffin. After all, there are also fruits in it ... True, and even provide vitamin E. Nevertheless, a weird comparison. A muffin mainly consists of sugar, flour, fat, egg - and that's a good thing.

Chocolate Muffin

10 g fat, 257 Kcal

90 g. Ha, who says that: six grams of fiber! Thanks a lot to the chocolate! Tastes so good again.

Brownie

27 g fat, 420 Kcal

125 g. Any comment actually superfluous. Who bites here, knows why: chocolate, almonds, sweet and delicious!

Carrot cake

20 g fat, 327 Kcal

100 g. Some people claim that carrot cake sharpens the eyes, because carrots contain a lot of provitamin A. Then look for the fat content quickly! Especially if the cake also has a thick cream cheese topping. Still, he is worth a sin!

That is how we proceeded

Only a few snacks were ingredients and nutritional values ​​on the pack or were available on the Internet. In most cases, we had to ask manufacturers.Those who readily gave us information, we have named. What was missing, we have found from the formulas on official nutritional tables. The fat and calorie values ​​can therefore only be approximate.
