With the rise of paleo diets, making healthy choices in the supermarket can be a daunting task. One such challenge is finding snacks that align with your dietary needs. In this article, we'll explore Lesser Evil's Egg White Curls, a paleo-friendly snack that may seem like a healthier alternative to traditional cheese curls.
On the surface, these egg white curls appear to be a healthier option, with 130 calories, 6g of protein, and 14g of carbs per serving. However, as Abby Langer, R.D., points out, 'Sure, they're higher in protein than normal cheese curls, but calorie-wise they look about the same.' Eat the entire bag, and you've gulped down more than 500 calories with little nutritional value.
While Lesser Evil's Egg White Curls do have a few selling points, such as their protein content and non-fluorescent color, they may not be the best choice for those seeking a truly healthy snack. As Langer notes, 'But who eats cheese curls for the protein?'
Ultimately, if you have a hankering for cheese curls and follow a paleo diet, Lesser Evil's Egg White Curls may satisfy your cravings. However, it's essential to keep in mind that they are still a processed snack and should be consumed in moderation.
