Interstate Bakeries Corporation - Food Menu

Tip 1 : Look for lower fat cheeses like part-skim mozzarella, or reduced fat versions of Monterey Jack, Swiss, Colby, Cheddar & Muenster.

Tip 2 : Vary your veggies by munching on cucumbers, broccoli, or red and green peppers instead of chips when you have a sandwich at lunch.

Tip 3 : Popeye had it right--use spinach in a salad or to top off a sandwich. Try its cousins--kale and collards--in soups and side dishes.

Tip 4 : Keep perishable protein foods out of the "danger zone"--temperatures between 40o and 140o F. Two hours is the limit.

Tip 5 : Make a mini pizza using a portabella mushroom for the crust. Top with tomato sauce, veggies, and low-fat mozzarella cheese, and broil.

Tip 6 : Cut the Calories but keep all the calcium--switch from whole (150 Calories) to low-fat (100 Calories) or fat-free (80 Calories) milk.

Tip 7 : Get your vegetables while eating out. Request extra vegetables on your sandwich or wrap to boost your daily intake.

Tip 8 : Visit your favorite breakfast diner and order a veggie omelet to start your day with vegetables.

Tip 9 : Add tuna or shrimp to your salad for a seafood twist!

Tip 10 : Look for the following whole grains listed first on the label’s ingredient list: brown rice, bulgur, graham flour, whole wheat, and oatmeal.
