Top 10 Guilty Restaurant Pleasures


Smart Indulgence #2: Ice cream sundae

Not everything on Dairy Queen’s menu is so safe; the average large Blizzard weighs in at an astounding 1,158 calories. But this sundae isn't nearly so dangerous. Actually, a little ice cream is good for you. The calcium slows the absorption of fat, and each half-cup contains 17 milligrams of choline, a B vitamin that improves blood flow. Add to that a potassium and fiber-rich banana, and you have a pretty stellar snack.
