Everybody tells me that gravy has fat. However I have in my hands right now a can of chicken gravy by Safeway and it states in the label:
Calories:25
Total fat:1g. Saturated:0.5g
Cholesterol :5mg
Soddium: 250mg
Carbohidrates: 4g
Fiber:1g
Sugars:0
Protein:0g
Per serving.
Each can has 5 servings. That would be 2.5g of saturated fat in the whole can.
Thats not significative.
Am I missing something?

A good gravy has fat like the Navy has ships.

Geronimo,
Most all gravies have fat in them, thats what makes gravy taste so good. You can buy low fat gravies at the supermarket, they are very good or you can make your own at home. It's actually a lot easier to just buy it though.

yupp. sure does..

Gravy is a rich tasting and generally fattening sauce, most commonly made from pan drippings and juices derived from cooking meat, although nearly any thickened sauce can be referred to as gravy. To make gravy, excess grease is removed and the remaining juice is thickened, most frequently by adding flour or corn starch and stirring until smooth.

I am by no means a expert on fat content, but, I am on gravy.. you bet it bad for ya. I find anything that tastes good is. So, the key is moderation. We are not all rabbits or birds.

Yes, gravy has fat.

By the way, there is something wrong with your question. It should be "Does gravy have fat?"
