Meat zongzi is not low in calories. Today is the Dragon Boat Festival, and many people like to add condiments to their zongzi to enhance the flavor. However, do you know that condiments can add a significant amount of calories? A nutritionist pointed out that the condiment with the most calories is honey, adding 47 extra calories per spoonful, while a spoonful of peanut powder has 36 calories. When paired with a zongzi from either the north or south, the total calorie count can reach nearly 600 calories, so for those watching their weight, it's important to pay attention. The nutritionist also shared the calorie count of various common zongzi and their fillings, such as Chaozhou zongzi, northern zongzi, southern zongzi, red bean zongzi, indigenous A bai, Hakka guizong, alkaline zongzi, and fruit ice zongzi.
