These Holiday Foods Are Healthier Than You Thought

Turkey

It’s the best option among the traditional centerpieces. There are 168 calories and 2 grams of fat in a 4-ounce serving of breast meat without skin. (The skin adds about 50 calories and 6 grams of fat.) Spiral ham is comparable in calories and fat but has more than 1,000 mg of sodium in 4 ounces. And standing rib roast has about twice the calories and 16 times the fat. Some turkeys are injected with a saline solution to make them juicier, so check labels; they can have as much as 300 mg of sodium in 4 ounces.
