"The embarrassing thing is that the salad dressing is outgrossing my films."
-Paul Newman, Food mogul
The realistic amount of dressing that most people eat is about 1/4 cup. That's why I have made this the serving size on dressings on the Dr. Gourmet website. This dressing has more fat in 1/4 cup than most but that's OK.
There was a time when all fat was bad. It is so nice that we know that that's not the case because avocados are high in fat. The good thing? Tons of monounsaturated fat. Like olive oil and other nuts, seeds and fatty fish we know that this is good for you.
