Answer 1

Waffles are delicious, especially the choc chip ones, so they probably are NOT good for you. Isnt that the way it works? (Sometimes I eat mine with PBJ in the middle, like a sandwich.......yummy)

Answer 2

I love waffles...I eat them with cream cheese and syrup. I like to put cream cheese inside each individual little square and then drizzle the whole waffle with syrup...yum!!!

Answer 3

I don't think they are real high in fat but the do have carbs (but you do work out) the only thing is the sugar in the choclate chips but it is not that bad.

Answer 4

Only if they are multi-grain chocolate chip waffles. Then the multi-grain offsets the indulgence of the chips. Plus, it will promote good fiber in your diet and prevent the whole bloated stomach problem. ENJOY!!

Answer 5

Waffles are considered high in carbohydrates.( But, Dayum, they are good!)

Carbohydrates: Recommendations

For most people, between 40% and 60% of total calories should come from carbohydrates, preferably from complex carbohydrates (starches) and naturally occurring sugars. Complex carbohydrates provide calories, vitamins, minerals, and fiber.

Foods that are high in processed, refined simple sugars provide calories, but they have few nutritional benefits. It is wise to limit such sugars.

To increase complex carbohydrates and healthy nutrients:

* Eat more fruits and vegetables.
* Eat more whole grains, rice, breads, and cereals.
* Eat more legumes (beans, lentils, and dried peas).

Here are recommended serving sizes for foods high in carbohydrates:

* Vegetables: 1 cup of raw vegetables, or 1/2 cup cooked vegetables, or 3/4 cup of vegetable juice
* Fruits: 1 medium size fruit (such as 1 medium apple or 1 medium orange), 1/2 cup of a canned or chopped fruit, or 3/4 cup of fruit juice
* Breads and cereals: 1 slice of bread; 1 ounce or 2/3 cup of ready-to-eat cereal; 1/2 cup of cooked rice, pasta, or cereal; 1/2 cup of cooked dry beans, lentils, or dried peas
* Dairy: 1 cup of skim or lowfat milk

For information about how many servings are recommended see the food guide pyramid.
