1. They fill your stomach well, but that is the only positive thing we can say about French fries, as it is known in the North.

1. If you like a snack, have a biscuit without chocolate or a healthy cereal bar or sesame bar, but a march or a snickers is actually half a meal when you consider the number of calories. And all those sugars only give you a very short-lived energy boost that will leave you tired later.

No wonder that obesity and diabetes are starting to reach epidemic proportions. A piece of fruit, a salad or a healthy whole-grain sandwich actually satisfies your hunger much better and also keeps you healthy in the long term. Maybe keep that in mind the next time you're tempted!
