That's Fit

If you happen to be the person who purchased food from the grocery store, you have the advantage of being able to check out its nutritional label. But what if you're not the one who bought the food? What if you're at a party, a neighbor's meet-and-greet, or even an office working lunch -- how do know what you're eating?

Asking to hop on your neighbor or boss' computer so you can research fat and calories in their food may not be the best option, so you have to rely on your own knowledge base. In many cases, you can play it pretty safe by sticking to foods you know are good for you. However, it's very easy to overindulge on these foods, too. Case in point - cheese.

Sometimes they're served on crackers, and other times just cubed and stuck with a toothpick, small servings of cheese are healthy snacks that, if eaten in abundance, can pack a caloric punch. Don't believe me? Check out the fat content and calorie count for a two ounce serving of some popular varieties.
