This makes turkey the ideal meat for anyone who wants to stay slim, yet eat to his or her heart's content without consuming much fat. Still, even if you do switch to turkey, watch your portion size. Double the amount you eat, and you will still gain weight.

The flip side is the lack of fat in turkey meat compromises the taste. After all, the yummiest food contains fat. Fat flavors food. Then again, with the right seasoning, gravy and all, turkey can be delicious. It is time to switch to something healthy and yummy...like turkey.
