Nutrition » Calories

Recently I posted about a McDonald’s billboard that promotes the “Big Breakfast with Hotcakes.” Scott’s guess was right on the mark for calories and fat, but he left off the syrup and butter… which are not insignificant.

This ten-foot-tall plate of food contains three pancakes (with syrup and butter), a biscuit, scrambled eggs, a sausage patty, and hash browns. Can you guess how many calories that is?

The new healthcare reform bill will require restaurant chains to include calorie information on their menus.

I’ve been surprised several times over the past few days when I’ve casually asked a couple of people, “Do you know how many calories you should eat each day?” and they were completely off the mark.

I had dinner at Baja Fresh with a good friend last night. As soon as I walked in, I looked around to find the nutrition information which — to BF’s credit — was sitting right on the counter.
