9. 200 calories of glazed doughnut:
You know what this means, right? You can eat MORE doughnuts than bagels! Why the hell have we been wasting our time with bagels?

Becky J 2 months agoNot really sure that this effectively demonstrates that counting calories is ‘stupid’. I found the whole thing entirely unsurprising. I lost 7 stone by counting calories. Other fads come and go, but it always seems to come back to calories in, calories out. Each to their own, of course, but I can’t agree that something that helped me to lose that much weight is ‘stupid’.

Foozlesprite 3 months agoIt’s good to see stuff like this, because a lot of people don’t realize how much/little of a food comes out to how many calories, or even what a portion size is (aka people need to look at the nutrition facts). Calorie counting is a good way to diet but it doesn’t help much for some people. Restricting my carb intake has helped me lose/maintain weight much more effectively than restricting calorie or even fat intake. It really all depends on YOUR body and how it responds to certain foods.

@amandam21. RELAX. Different marketing for Canada. Read this. If you still feel like freaking out over candy, fine: you have been lied to your whole life and now you will question everything because Wikipedia lists these candies under Smarties (wafer candy) instead of Rockets. As we all know, Wikipedia is always right. D:

Maybe I count calories too much, but I was completely unsurprised by any of this and fail to see the point.

“Calories are kind of a stupid way to measure food in real life.” Except, you know, for the fact that weight gain is based on calories in/calories out. But other than being an empirical measurement for weight gain, yeah, absolutely stupid.

Places with burgers over 1,000 calories include: Burger King (highest has 1270)
Carl’s Jr (1030)
Dairy Queen (1000)
Hardee’s (1300)
Sonic (1280)
Wendy’s (1060)
Whataburger (1160, previously 1820)
Whitecastle Of those, most are triple burgers. It only takes 3-4 of Whitecastle’s double sliders to top 1000, but 6-8 regular sliders. Whataburger seems to be redoing their menu; previously, almost everything was over 1000 (the regular burger was 1330), now it’s just the triple and specialty burgers (I’ve never been there, so the only reason I know this is because the nutrition page of their website has the old numbers but the menu page has the new ones). The highest calorie regular burgers are from Five Guys (840, but it’s a double), Sonic (800), Carl’s Jr (660), Whataburger (640), and Hardee’s (620), and the lowest are BK and McDonalds (300) and Jack in the Box (330). I also can only speak for ones that are actually listed on the menu, for obvious reasons.
