4. There's nothing like a rich, creamy salad dressing, but traditional ones are high in fat and calories. In fact, some salads are more fattening than ice cream when diners are too liberal with the dressing. NASOYA makes soy-based Vegi-Dressings that are just as rich and creamy as regular dressings but lower in fat and cholesterol free. Favorite flavors like Thousand Island and Italian taste as good if not better than the regular brands. Or you can try making your own Sweet Poppy Seed Dressing with soymilk.
