food for thought

One of my biggest pet peeves is when somebody gets a salad, douses it in ranch dressing and fried chicken...and then claims they're being healthy.

Finally, there's some research to back up my frustration.

Many people who eat at Subway grossly underestimate the number of calories they're consuming, according to this article. This leads people not only to eat without guilt, but also to eat more food later in the day because they think they're entitled to it.

An example? A McDonald's Big Mac had about 600 calories at the time of the study, while a fully-loaded 12-in Italian sub from Subway had 900.

I'm lovin' it!
