Why is it I always seem to get hungry when I'm surrounded by unhealthy food?
Particularly, this seems to happen when I'm in a convenience store trying to pay for gas or stick to just buying a gallon of milk.
I recently went on a tour of a local 7-Eleven with dietitian Avtar Nijjer-Sidhu, community health capacity building specialist with the Central California Regional Obesity Prevention Project.
She pointed out some things to avoid, healthier options and ways to make unhealthy food better for you.
Read the story "An inconvenient truth at the corner store," which is on Bakersfield.com and will run in The Californian tomorrow.
Do you have any tips for eating healthy at the convenience store? Any recipes using corner store staples? Anything you've learned to avoid?
I'd love to hear your thoughts.
