Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community
1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.
2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.
3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.
4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.
5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.
6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

People SEVERELY underestimate how many calories are in food. I've seen people online estimate that a snickers bar is only 40 kcal.
That's especially weird with packaged food because it says right on it.
> implying people read nutritional labels.
There is nothing more fucking annoying to me than some of the portion size bullshit on packages. Like, when I have a bowl of fruit loops, I'm going to have a bowl, not a tablespoon*. Either give me the whole fucking package worth of calories (which... seriously some people need) or at least be realistic with portion sizes. I know it's an estimate, but I'm pretty sure companies love to make their crap sound better than it is by giving the minimum.
Edit: * - I call out fruit loops but I haven't actually looked them in a long time now, so my example is not real world. As someone paying attention to this across a lot of different products though, it's been really grinding my gears and I needed to rant. XD
I don't know how it is where you are, but here there's always nutritional information per 100g, in addition to the portion sizes. So I always ignore everything but the per 100g, and compare the macronutrient distribution that way
I severely overestimate my calories if it’s food and not booze. I think I’ve been eating 1000-1300cal daily, but I really gotta not drink more than I eat.
beer is the thing that really tips the scales in my life. god damn you wonderful precious fermented grain water give it to me
Liquid bread

I’m guessing a mini is that or higher. Who’s teaching these people nutrition??
no one. that's the problem.
In America? No one.
According to the post, 41 grams of snickers has 200 calories. 40 kcal or 40000 calories is 8.2kg of snickers. If anything they would be vastly overestimating the amount of calories...
1 kcal = 1 "food Calorie", yes it's confusing.
Ok, so TIL, but also the post has 200 cal, not Cal which would be kcal.
Edit: Ok I'm wrong. It says Cal
