World's Best Superfoods Part 8

7. Spanish

Our judges applaud the Spanish tradition of eating tapas (small plates of food): I love the idea of being able to sample little portions of tasty, healthful foods and making a dinner of it, Largeman-Roth says. The Spanish eat tons of fresh seafood, vegetables, and olive oil-all rock stars when it comes to your weight and well-being.

Superhealthy dishes to order: gazpacho (full of cancer-fighting lycopene and antioxidants) and paella (rich in fresh seafood, rice, and veggies).

Danger zone: Avoid fatty sausages and fried items, which can show up on tapas menus in the United States.
