Choose lean cuts of meat. Limit organ meats like liver, sweetbreads, and kidneys.
Organ meats are high in cholesterol, even though they are fairly low in fat.
Limit high fat processed meats like bacon, bologna, salami, hot dogs, and sausage. Remember that some chicken and turkey hot dogs are lower in saturated fat and total fat than pork and beef hot dogs. Usually, processed poultry products have more fat and cholesterol than fresh poultry. To be sure, check the nutrition label on deli products such as hot dogs and luncheon meats to find those that are lowest in fat and saturated fat. Try fresh ground turkey or chicken made from white meat, like the breast.
