When I was a child growing up in the upper mid-west, one of the most fun activities we would do as kids were to ice skate. A small tributary off of the Maumee River seemed to always have at least a month or so in the winter that it would freeze over. Since it was not too deep, it was never a worry over an icebreaker. To sum it up, we enjoyed our winter by ice skating to our heart’s content, or should I say to our hearts health.

Football season means family and friends on Saturday and Sunday afternoons munching on fatty foods that are anything but healthy!

I am sure that all of your favorite football team’s players will concur. So if you want to be a superstar player during the game, get it together with some healthy snacks. Let’s see what fatty foods we can replace. Let’s start with the old favorite chicken wings.
