    6/10. Luckily, I don't shop for 90% of those items. By that I mean I don't go there. And I agree with Accountant_boi that there are better choices out there. If I'm feeling like fast food.....I go out to eat at a favorite restaurant. Maybe once a week or every two weeks. It just depends. And 95% of the time I pick something within my calorie limit. I've had zero ill effects from this so far. Perhaps it's a total shock to the system or something. I don't know.

    5 right. Grrr.

    I didn't like the question about the Big Mac and the slice of Pizza. The Big Mac would have been safer for me, because I never stop with just one or two slices of pieces. LOL!

    Took a quiz about calorie splurges. Boy! Do I still have a lot to learn! Try it for yourself here:

    http://www.thatsfit.com/2009/12/03/low-calorie-splurge/

    I got 6/10 correct but I must be fair to myself and say I wouldn't eat either of the options on the ones I got wrong so I'll never have to make those splurge choices lol.

    I got 7/10 but I think several of the questions were misleading--like saying if you have a frappuccino without the whip it's better. Well, of course it is, but that's not what the question asked. Same with the Reese's cups--if you have the size it shows in the picture, it's 42 cals each and a better choice than 120 c worth of M&Ms (half a bag)--but the answer referred to full-size Reese's. Finally, I think the leaner protein in the chicken wings makes it a better choice than mozzarella sticks (even though I think fried cheese is heaven on earth), even if it's a few more calories. Anyway, knowledge is power and it is good to get people thinking and questioning their assumptions about good and bad food.

    9/10... but I don't buy most of those anyway. Good to know that I have an idea for when I do splurge though! :) I missed the buffalo wing/mozarella stick one... but I am glad I did because my preference is the one lower in calories!

    Got 9 out of 10 but can honestly say that they are mostly not things I would want to eat -ever. The portion size was poorly indicated.

    Have you seen the Eat This not That quiz? http://eatthis.menshealth.com/game/ (comes as a free app too)

    You got me. I saw that you posted a topic titled this and was worried. I'm like "Oh, no..." But enjoyed the quiz and got 9 out of 10. Thanks for the laugh!

    That was interesting 5/5, but I love me some Oreos, and I haven't them in like forever, so it was good to know they won't kill my whole eating healthy plan!!! I also took the one about portions, now that I got down to a science 9/10 correct!!!!!Great post girl!
