Each year, so many of us make New Year's resolutions to improve our diets. We vow to eat more fiber, fresh vegetables, and lean protein. We virtuously veer away from the fast food restaurants, and fill our refrigerators and cupboards with smart food choices like grapefruit, chicken breasts, whole grain cereals, and seasonal produce.
And then comes dessert. You tell yourself you'll just have a taste...and before you know it, you've eaten the entire cream puff and are craving more!
If, like many virtuous eaters, dessert has become your downfall, it's time to discover four Hall of Fame-worthy diet desserts!
Drumroll, please, and the awards go to:
