Most people don’t realize that even consuming a salad can be counterproductive to their efforts to get healthier if it contains hidden calories. Today’s average restaurant-style salad contains well over 500 calories, and most of those can be credited to the salad dressing. At Bolthouse Farms, the company is always coming up with fresh and innovative ways to give consumers what they want: healthier options to tickle their taste buds and fit into their lifestyle. To help consumers manage their healthy eating, the company offers light vinaigrettes and yogurt-based salad dressings (which can be doubled up as delicious dips!). The dressings are 45 calories of less per serving, which means they contain at least 55% fewer calories and 75% less fat than the leading mayonnaise-based brand.
