Free calories
Posted in Generalon Oct 31, 2007
A friend of mine was recently eating some packaged cookies, and we noticed something odd about the nutritional facts. We noticed that the calories didn’t quite match up.
Notice how there are two cookies per package, and that each cookie has 170 calories. 2 cookies per package times 170 calories per cookie equals 340 calories per package. But the package shows that there are 350 calories per package. So where are these extra 10 calories coming from?
You will see a similar error when you look at calories from fat.
