3. Fried Chicken: Foods cooked in highly heated oils (most notably, partially hydrogenated oil) have been known to cause cancer, weight gain and other serious health risks if consumed regularly. Fried chicken (and their nugget counterparts) are some unhealthy examples.

A 10-piece chicken nuggets order from McDonald's has 460 calories, 29 grams of fat and 1000 milligrams of sodium. One chicken breast (extra crispy) from Kentucky Fried Chicken has around 490 calories, 31 grams of fat and 7 grams of saturated fat. So unless you want to super size yourself, it's best to make a clean break with fried foods.
