Today I happened upon a package of roasted chestnuts. I looked at the nutritional info which stated there were 100 calories in 1 cup of the product. This didn't seem right, so I curiously opened my browser to do a little reconnaissance. Lo and behold, 1 cup is actually over 200 cal! Moral? When in doubt, check it out. I always check at least 3 sources when getting info for a new food. The numbers aren't always the same but two out of three ain't bad. Have a good day!!!

People are too trusting. I'm slowly learning about food and it amazes me how much I don't know. You'd think 33 years of eating experience would count, huh?0
