While all salad dressings are different, many brands mix in a lot of added sugar for flavor. This can ruin a relatively healthy meal full of vegetables, protein, and fruit.

The USDA reported that commercial French dressings have about 11 grams of sugar per serving. This is about as much sugar as a handful of chocolate chips.
