Like probably most Americans these days, I look in the mirror and realize that I could stand to lose a few pounds. So, in order to start this quest to shed some unwanted baggage, I decided to start by watching and limiting my calorie intake. I started checking the nutrition information on the labels of food I eat or would like to eat.
Well, after a short time of it, I noticed something that raised my suspicions. Almost all the food I looked at had a calorie count per serving around the same? Totally different foods too.
Examples:
1 can of generic cola=150 calories
1 serving of frozen fries=120 calories
1 hotdog=180 calories
1 serving of corn chips=140 calories
1 serving of Cheerio's with milk=150 calories
1 serving (4 wafers) of sugar wafer cookies=150 calories
The list goes on and on. Is this just a coincidence? I think not. I don't belive in them. For some reason the food makers alter the serving size to get the calories to be aproximately the same. I know I am not that smart, but there is probably some kind of plan.
Maybe with some more research I can become more enlightened.
This is one man's opinion
