I fancy a treat today! Which would be better to have - breaded scampi or hand-battered cod?

    Anything battered would be the poor choice.

    That's the choice? Fried shrimp or fried fish? Are you asking which one I would like better or you would like better?

    I really don't know how to answer this one....hmmm..

    I beg to differ...do what makes you happy. A suggestion - check the food data base and go with "the lesser of two evils":tongue:
    It appears so many on MFP deny themselves of so many foods. I have eaten damn lean cusinines all week, every day @ lunch . Today I will indulge @ lunch - ( a little:wink: ) in shrimp tempura, grilled chicken , some brown rice and shredded carrots - for approx 450 calories!
    I will adjust my calorie intake @ dinner - at a time in whickh I will still be happy!:happy:

    In terms of fat consumption, a piece of cod has a relatively smaller surface area (to be accurate a smaller surface area to volume ratio) so absorbs less fat than the same weight of breaded scampi. Enjoy your treat!
