Does cholesterol-free mean fat-free?
Foods that boast a “cholesterol-free” label can in fact be high in fat. A handful of cholesterol-free potato chips (28 g) contains about 10 grams of fat while three chocolate chip cookies give you about 8 grams of fat. To find out what you are really getting in a food, check the nutrition information panel on the label. Remember, for most people it’s more important to lower total fat intake than it is to avoid cholesterol.
