So i went out to Swiss Chalet for dinner and for dessert we got the Cinnamon Stuffed Donuts. So i figured i'd take one because its probably 200 cals max and i had some to spare. Anyways when i got home i logged it and it said that 1 donut (6 in an order) contains 880 calories. Could this be right? Im really stressing about this now.

    Looks to me (after looking at the Swiss Chalet website) that one whole order is 880. That plus the 200 calorie caramel dipping sauce put it a little over 1000 cals, which I've noticed is about average when it comes to restaurant desserts. Crazy, no? But yes, one donut in an order of 6 shouldn't be 880 calories, if they are smallish.

    Divide by six the dessert comes with six and is meant to be one serving.

    it's probably right. it happened to me, I had a brownie ala mode thinking it wasn't that much calories, turned out that it has 850 cals. (1 tiny square) couldn't believe it at first but when I search all it's ingredients, yeah, 850 sounds right. live and learn, live and learn :). God bless!
