Top 10 Worst Foods

According to women's health experts, here are ten of the top worst foods you can eat:

1. Potato Chips. One ounce has 152 calories and 10 grams of fat, 3 saturated. If you eat just three ounces a week, in one year you'll have added seven pounds to your waistline.

2. Non-Dairy Toppings. These are mostly corn syrup and hydrogenated vegetable oil - stuff that you don't want floating in your arteries.

3. Donuts. White flour, vegetable shortening, white sugar and deep fried. An old-fashioned cake donut has 300 calories, 28 grams of carbs and 19 grams of fat, including 5 of saturated and 4 of trans fat.

4. Fettuccine Alfredo. Pasta drenched with butter, cream, and parmesan. A serving the size of your fist has 543 calories and 33 grams of fat, 19 saturated.

5. Sausage. A health hazard. A single pork link has 217 calories and 20 grams of fat.

6. Fried Chicken. A fried breast has 400 calories and 22 grams of fat.

7. Imitation Cheese in a Can. The amount you'd put on two crackers packs 276 calories and a whopping 21 grams of fat, 13 saturated.

8. French Fries. One 6 ounce order of fast-food fries contains 570 calories, half of which are from fat! If you include a large hamburger tack on 670 calories and 39 grams of fat.

9. Soft White Bread. You may as well have a candy bar. A slice of white bread is all white flour, a simple and rapidly digested carb that causes your blood sugar to rise and crash.

10. Fried Wontons. Often filled with meat or cream cheese, deep fried. Just four have 311 calories and 19 grams of fat. Too greasy to keep you fit.
