High-calorie foods mainly include the following categories: 1. Fried foods: such as fried chicken, French fries, and doughnuts. These foods absorb a large amount of oil during the cooking process, significantly increasing their calorie content. 2. Sweets and pastries: such as cakes, donuts, chocolates, and ice cream. These foods usually contain large amounts of sugar and fat, thus having high calorie content. 3. Fast food: fast food items such as hamburgers and pizza also belong to high-calorie foods due to the use of high-calorie ingredients and cooking methods. 4. Nuts and seeds: although nuts and seeds are rich in healthy fats, they also have relatively high calorie content, such as almonds, walnuts, and peanuts. 5. Meat and meat products: especially fatty meats, such as pork and beef, as well as processed meat products like sausages and ham, which also have high calorie content.
