That a 5 oz glass of red wine is worth far fewer calories than expected, and far larger than I thought it would be, learning about calorie counting is a beautiful thing ;)

    Might have to switch over to red wine, my cider is higher than I was hoping.

    Eye opening, isn't it? I prefer white myself (ah, Riesling, my old friend). 100 cals per 150ml (5 fl. Oz). Hmm, thank you for motivating me to refill my wine fridge. She's been empty ever after the holidays feasting. Off to the local wine superstore, bwahaha!

    That's something I discovered today too! As a matter of fact, I'm having a glass right now.

    My drink of choice back in the day...have been abstinent over 3 years now though mainly because of the detrimental effects of alcohol (in general) on sleep (in the long run).

    I drink wine only when I'm with other people. ;) idk I don't really have the taste for it. So that's not something I worry about too much. Fruit juice on the other hand...
