Cardiologist's Note

Contrary to popular belief, the majority of calories n French fries actually comes from the fat, not the carbohydrates. Sweet potatoes, even though "sweeter" in taste than white or red potatoes, have approximately the same number of carbohydrates per ounce. These fries are baked, which spares you more than 50 percent of the calories found in regular deep-fried fries.
