If your defination of "occasional" means every once a week and maybe some more after a few days, well, you will be in trouble of gaining excess fat.

Truth : It is really the direct opposite. Starchy vegetables and bread (i.e. whole grain) are actually quality carbs that you needed to provide fuel or energy to every part of your body, from your brain to your muscles. The thing that brings you into trouble is the way you eat them. If you smear butter on a slice of whole-wheat bread or even just a simple deep-fring on the potatoes and you can actually double, triple, or quadruple the calories. So, before you actually look on further to add on those butter or deep frying food into your body, think again.
