Churros
Churro is a fried, sugar-coated dough pastry popular in Spanish and Latin American cuisines, often enjoyed as a street snack or breakfast treat and commonly served with a chocolate dipping sauce. It is energy-dense at 419kcal per 100g and is typically high in added sugar and fat because it is deep-fried and dusted in sugar. Nutritionally it provides some protein from the dough but is low in fiber and micronutrients compared with whole-food snacks. Because churros are a highly processed, fried sweet pastry, they are best enjoyed occasionally as an indulgence rather than a daily choice.
