My overriding feeling about getting a dietetics degree is that by becoming a licensed professional, I would be bound by the current standards of care such as those found on the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics website:
Recently seen on the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics under "Breakfast Recipes"
"Pancakes are an all-American breakfast treat, and this version pairs chocolate chips and fresh bananas for extra goodness. In Michigan, where wild berries grow, people love to use blueberry syrup; you can also try them with wild blueberry sauce."
Additionally, the recipe calls for low fat buttermilk and cooking spray. In their defense they do label this a "breakfast treat" though.
"This version of French toast uses whole-wheat bread and fat-free milk for a healthier option. Enjoy the traditional way or chop into sticks for dunking!"
In their defense at least they list the maple syrup as "optional".
