Are you binge baking during COVID-19 shutdowns? Tips to keep it healthy

Have you gone to the grocery store, only to be met by an empty flour shelf? A lot of us are using the opportunity of being stuck at home to make delicious things in the oven. But, unfortunately, cookies and brownies and cupcakes usually come in only one serving size -- exactly as many as are currently in front of you. So, we turned to an expert for some tips on how to make it out of COVID-19 quarantine without becoming a chocolate chip cookie. Kathleen Zelman, a registered dietitian, nutritionist, and the nutrition director for WebMD joins KYW In Depth to talk about how to keep from eating all of the cookies, what to substitute in your recipes to make them healthier, and the science behind why extra body fat makes it more difficult to stave off disease.  See omnystudio.com/policies/listener for privacy information.
