What is the fat content of chorizo?!


Question: What is the fat content of chorizo!?
I always thought that chorizo had a high fat content!?

The other day I was using some and thought I was going to be able to render some fat out!. To my surprise very little fat came out!. How come!? Is chorizo low fat!? Or!?Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
In a one ounce serving of chorizo, there are 10!.8 grams of fat or 17% of the USRDA based on a 2000 calorie diet!. There are 130 calories total, and 97of those calories come from fat !.

Most sausage contains fat for flavor!. Remember that each fat unit is worth a bit more than twice as many calories at the same quantity of protein!. So there isn;t really that much fat to cook out of the sausage!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I believe that it is very fattening!. Probably one of the most fattening foods out there!. If you can fry something without adding any lard, butter, margarine or oil, then it's very, very fattening, as far as I'm concerned!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
