25. Dipping sauces are common condiments in households.
Unless you’re using a dipping sauce to convince kids to eat more veggies, it is best not to introduce them to condiments. Dipping sauces are usually provided for foods that they shouldn’t regularly be having anyway. Even though ketchup is great with fries, avoid it. Kids tend to use too much on their food, and that’s a lot of unnecessary calories. If you want to curb back on these empty calories, start measuring out one- to two-ounce servings in a small dish. Alternatively, you can try substituting other sauces with seasoned Greek yogurt. It will be healthier for them and will provide them with more essential nutrients.
