Okay, let’s think about what most people consider to be their favorite, rich Thanksgiving or birthday meal. We’re typically talking about something that’s very rich, that’s very high in fat and that’s extremely unhealthy at the core of the meal – most people can look at their family’s Thanksgiving dinner and will be unable to argue this point. Yes, you know it’s unhealthy, and you know that’s why you do it!
But gravy is an essential part of the Thanksgiving meal happens to be just as unhealthy – and we wouldn’t recommend that you go nuts on the gravy the way you used to anymore. It’s going to be unhealthy for you, it’s likely going to clog up your arteries with far too much salt and it’s going to set you up for a lot of discomforts, bile and heartburn that will make you feel sorry you indulged your craving for gravy.
