20 Fat-Burning Secrets of The Grill


#3: Upgrade your barbecue sauce

According to the American Heart Association, the average American downs a whopping 22 teaspoons of sugar every day. That's 335 calories, enough to add 37 pounds in a year! Much of this sugar comes from sources like sodas and sweets, but there's a high proportion hiding in less-obvious places like dressings and sauces. Case in point: Kraft original, pictured here. It derives a full 80 percent of its calories from sugar. Look for a sauce with no added sugar, or at the very least, one that doesn't list sugar first on the ingredient statement. (Try Stubb's Original, which has half as much sugar as Kraft Original.)
