Default Daily Dish on Salad Dressings

Lots of people ask what dressing they can have on SBD. Below is a Daily Dish that answers the question. Be aware that "less than 3 grams" means you can have 3, 2, 1, or 0 grams of sugar, okay?

Dress It Up
This Daily Dish is part of a series on how to read nutrition labels.

Knowing how to read a nutrition label can be extremely helpful when choosing a store-bought salad dressing. What's the key to finding a South Beach Diet™-friendly dressing? Again, it's all about the type of fat and amount of added sugar.

Dressings with less than 3 grams of sugar per serving are permitted on The South Beach Diet™.

As for fat content, look for commercial dressings made with heart-healthy monounsaturated fats like olive oil and canola oil. Other vegetable oils are okay, but they don't carry the same health benefits. Be careful of dressings touted as "low-fat" or "nonfat," since manufacturers often add extra sugar to improve the flavor. And always avoid dressings made with hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated oils.

Olive oil and vinegar make a great salad dressing — the acid in the vinegar helps lower the glycemic load of the meal.
