OTTAWA- It’s not new news:obesity has become an epidemic across the country. Miami County Family and Consumer Sciences Agent Diane Burnett says with growing waistlines, substitutions can be made in ingredients so we can enjoy the same foods without packing on the pounds.
“You can substitute an equal amount of applesauce for oil,” Burnett said. “A cup of unsweetened applesauce has 100 calories; one cup of vegetable oil has 1950 calories. So what should you choose?” Burnett says the substitution comes in time for the approaching holiday season.
