Notable Quote:

"Two sushi rolls may seem like the perfect light lunch. It's fish, right? But what most women don't know is that a typical California roll contains the carb equivalent of two and a half to four slices of bread—that's like eating two sandwiches filled with fake crab, avocado, and a teeny bit of veggies. Add a spicy tuna roll (another common choice) and you're eating another mayo-laden tuna sammy. At 640 calories, these rolls aren't terrible. But all those simple carbs are crowding out the protein and veggies." - Rachel Beller, R.D.
