Australian influencer and OnlyFans creator Anna Paul has been left puzzled after coming across an unusual hack for reducing calories when it comes to pizza. While attending a book launch in the US, Paul noticed two women dabbing their pizza slices with napkins. After doing some research, Paul discovered that this hack could help reduce the amount of calories and fat in the meal by up to 40 calories.
The 23-year-old influencer took to Instagram to share her confusion with her 2.2 million followers. “I guess people in America really do dab napkins on their pizza because of all that grease,” she said.
A study from LabDoor in 2015 proved that wiping away the excess oil on pizza can significantly reduce the amount of calories and fat consumed in the meal. Reportedly, the experiment showed that even this small change to the way you eat the Italian treat can save from a huge amount of calorie consumption.
The hack is reported to save about 28,188 calories and 1131 grams of fat in an average year’s consumption — just by dabbing away. The average US fast-food lover eats about 10.4 kilograms of pizza a year — the equivalent of 87 Domino slices.
Paul, who is known for her down-to-earth attitude and family-friendly content on Instagram and TikTok, shared a TikTok in March showcasing her appreciation for a greasy slice. “It’s like I’m wearing lip gloss from the oil,” she said.
While Paul loves her pizza greasy and delicious, she also understands the importance of cutting down on calories — and she’s not alone. Many people are now trying out the dabbing hack to reduce their calorie intake.
So, if you’re looking for a way to reduce your calorie intake without sacrificing on taste, why not give dabbing a try? It’s a simple hack that could help you save a lot of calories and fat over the year.
