DH is planning his calories for today and has quite a few left. He is going to a ballgame tonight and thought he would probably eat nachos and cheese with chili.

I have looked on this site and various others trying to guesstimate what it would be approximately.

I have seen anywhere from 380 to about 850 calories.

It's the serving size at a typical high school sporting event.

What would you all guess?

    trying seaching it under a movie theatre. they serve nachos of the same type. I wouldn't actually guess it's way up near 800 though... I guess it depends how much he eats. If fit's a once in a blue moon thing it's not a big deal, especially since he's got calories left over

    my guess is that it is totally not worth eating nacho chips and chili...BUT if going down that road I would put in 1200 calories to be sure...it might be more than that

    have popcorn instead

    Utz - Corn Chips, 1 oz about 24 chips 150
    Hormel - Orginal Chilli, 0.5 Cup 130
    Stobys - Cheese Dip, 8 tbsp 260
    Total 540


    Thanks for your all's input. This is what I came up with when I put it in with each individual thing. But that could be WAY off base. But I tried to put in about what the serving sizes are.

    This is hubby's dinner, so popcorn is just not going to cut it for him. I know him too well. haha.
