    Foods don't burn fat, only a calorie deficit does. Fats are actually really good for a body (especially unsaturated), as they help with hormone regulation, can improve satiety in some people.


    But fruits, veggies, egg whites, low fat dairy.

    When fats are removed from foods, the flavor is taken away. To replace it, companies add in sugar and salt. Because of this, low fat foods aren't necessarily lower calorie.

    Personally, I would take the full fat version of food. Fat keeps me more full than sugar.

    Fat good. Calories(within your limit) good.
