The latest entries in the WTF serving size competition

3 Comments

So I’ve been trying to be more interested in nutrition labels to get a better idea of what calorie counts and other stuff are in my food. This has now become a game, in which I attempt to find the most egregious and/or crazy entries on the nutritional label.

Today brings us two entries in the WTF serving size competition:

1) Apparently, a serving size of Tic Tacs is one Tic Tac, with the extremely precise value of 1.9 calories per serving. (Sorry the picture’s kinda blurry, was trying to take it fast.)

2) I’d like you to try and eat just one-third of a muffin at once. (The whole muffin is 600 calories. OMG.)

Multicultural?

It’s all Luns’ fault. Besides introducing me to the pleasures of food from other cultures, he forced me to learn to eat with chopsticks.  So today, while I was out enjoying Mongolian BBQ with Mom, I decided, on a whim, to try to eat with chopsticks to see if I still could, expecting to switch to the fork shortly.

I ate the whole thing with the chopsticks. I am oddly proud of this accomplishment.
