RD LaurenCadillac says you should stop labelling Halloween candy as 'bad.' Here's how to eat it mindfully!
I remember the days where I'd skip-run around my neighborhood in the early afternoon with a chaperone in tow and a pillowcase hanging from my tiny fingers. My sweet, sweet
candy — Snickers, Twix, the works — was all I cared about during trick-or-treating. Well, that and how convincing I looked as Ariel fromwith my tomato-red wig and Disney princess fishtail dress. But you're never too old to enjoy treats come jack-o'-lantern season, and registered dietitian Lauren Cadillac, CLT, CPT, agrees. She also knows that no matter the diet or eating habits you follow, it's easy to label sweets as off-limits or bad. This, she said, isn't healthy.
Although there are obvious differences in the nutritional value of, let's say, raw vegetables and your favorite brand of chocolate, Lauren, aka theas she calls herself, told POPSUGAR via email that she doesn't like to use the words"bad" and"good" to describe food."Bad and good imply morality, meaning if we eat these 'bad' foods, then we ourselves are 'bad,'" she explained.
