Fun Facts

1. Eyeball any salad-dressing label, and oil is one of the top ingredients. Unfortunately, the bulk of oils used in nonorganic salad dressings today come from genetically engineered soy or canola, crops that have never been tested for their impact on human health.
2. The organic label ensures there’s no high-fructose corn syrup in your dressing, so go that route whenever possible. Beware of dressing with too much regular sugar, too. Bradley says many fruit-based dressings, like raspberry vinaigrette, sometimes harbor a deceiving amount of sweeteners.
3. Many salad dressing flavors like honey mustard, Caesar, or creamy balsamic rely on caramel coloring to give them their rich brown or golden hue,” Bradley explains, noting that some caramel colors have been linked to cancer.
4. Trans fats are dangerous industrialized fats that your taste buds love but your body hates, thanks to the ingredient’s tendency to promote heart disease.
