Nutritionists Warn Against Ordering This High-Calorie Restaurant Starter.
Deep-fried appetizers like mozzarella sticks, onion rings, chicken wings, jalapeño poppers, and French fries are loaded with excessive calories and unhealthy fats, making them detrimental to weight loss goals. Registered dietitian and nutritionist Krutika Nanavati recommends avoiding these starters and opting for healthier options like soups, salads, bruschetta, hummus, and fish tacos with grilled fish and fresh vegetables instead.
