[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They are filling if you eat enough of them, it's just that some people would rather have a few bites of these things and then a meal with more lean protein and veggies vs. them being the entire meal.[/quote]

Who is serving “lean protein and ‘veggies’” for a festive holiday meal? Thank goodness no one I know. A protein with sides, sure, but not unseasoned chicken or completely plain salmon and some asparagus. [/quote]

Typically if you are that concerned with maintaining a healthy diet during the holiday season the advice is to NOT show up hungry and instead have a protein heavy snack beforehand and then choose a few bites of things that you really want. But going into a party expecting to have your typical balanced diet is naive.[/quote]

OP asks why people don’t like heavy appetizer parties. We are explaining. All of us who hate appetizer parties know all of this already. We still hate them and are answering the question.[/quote]
