Weighty Matters

Today's post from one of the many blogs that I subscribe to is one worth sharing. I know that many people don't want to know how many calories they're about to consume. I also think that most of us would make a quick reconsideration when we discovered (with a shock) just how many calories were in those "healthy choice" options on the menus of our favorite restaurants.

I already know that my favorite desserts are loaded. I may pass once in a awhile if I knew just how many calories were in them, but probably not. Over all I'd say that the more info we have, the better choices we can make. For example--I probably wouldn't have eaten six Burger King Whoppers in a sitting if I'd have realized that the fat calories alone would feed a small family for a day. Maybe you don't care how many calories you're consuming. If that's the case, it won't really matter if they are posted. I think that it's a good idea and should be adopted around the country.
Here's your opportunity to weigh in on the issue. (pun intended)

Comments anyone?
