6. Fruit Snacks
Destroyer of teeth and waistlines, fruit snacks are just that – snacks, in the same way that an order of small fries are a snack. Most varieties are packed with high fructose corn syrup and cane sugar both of which which lead to weight gain, which can increase your risk for diabetes — and contain only a mere hint of actual fruit ingredients.
Their extra sugar and gelatinous ingredients also stick to teeth, providing an ideal environment for bacteria to create cavities – so your smile is also at risk.
