    The one thing food can't do to your face is make it break out. "Studies have found no correlation between acne and food," says RealAge medical expert and New York City dermatologist Amy Wechsler, MD. Even greasy fast food—unless you're cooking it, not eating it. If you're prone to breakouts, the worst thing that could happen to your skin is working near a deep fryer, she explains: "All those cooking oils get onto your skin and into your pores." Clog city. Just eating fries and a chocolate shake, however, while it may not be good for the rest of you, won't do a thing to your face.
