They choose to scare you with the doughnuts and pizza and onion bahji [whatever that is] and other snack food items, but I could have easily arrived at the same calorie count with a cup of dried apricots, a medium avocado and a banana.

The Internet is abuzz with links to what some are calling “the most horrifying link in the world”, a BBC and Radio-1 “Alcohol Experiment” where users can calculate the caloric value of the alcohol they've ingested. Maybe this could prove a useful tool for people battling against the dreaded “freshman fifteen?”

Jaffa cakes biscuit's with jam covered in chocolate, much like Pim's easily found here in the states. They are delicious, and go very well with a double measure spirit and an alcopop.
Who ever knew you could get such a well rounded meal - pizza, a hamburger, a donut, an onion bhaji, and a jaffa cake! - from a bunch of liquor, amirite??

No wonder I'm so goddamn huge.
