200 Calories

To promote healthy living everywhere (at which point I must mention that I'm striking the "red meat once a week" proviso from my list due to a suddenly keen awareness that geezus, cow is in EVERYTHING),

Click HERE to see what 200 cals. of various food items are worth. I cry for Hershey's Kisses. On the other hand, that's an awful lot of celery - and what's with the story of celery actually burning more calories than it contains (due to the chewing intensive nature of chomping on it and its hard-to-digest nature)? If that were true... shouldn't you technically never be able to ingest 200 calories worth of celery (and as such, shouldn't that picture be blank)?!

... of course, it could just be a myth. Urban legend for weed-eaters.
