This calorie chart contains food items that, although never meant to be eaten alone, can add significant calories to a dish. It is therefore important to not just consider the nutritional value of the main part of the meal, for example noodles or chicken breast, but to also add the calories from sauces and dressings as well. Because the name of this food group describes a part of the dish rather than the shared ingredients, the nutrition facts of sauces and dressings can vary widely. Some have hardly any calories but add significant taste, such as tabasco sauce, whereas other sauces and dressings have greater calorie density, such as full-fat sour cream. Even though many salad dressings and marinades are low-calorie and have small serving sizes, they can contain a lot of added fat and sugar. Condiments can be sweetened with high fructose corn syrup; one example of this is ketchup. Review the nutrition label and ingredients for more information. To limit added calories in an otherwise nutritious meal, it’s best to use salad dressings sparingly, particularly if the base is olive oil.
