Counting Calories

blog post 1


There was a guy in my class who ate one bagel every day. His friends wanted to see how many calories the 365 bagels had altogether. First, they guessed that it would be 1,000 calories.Then, they found out that each bagel was about 300 calories. 300 * 7 = 2,100. 2,100 * 52 =109,200. Those guys were way off. (sighs sympathetically) Those bagels were way to many calories. We have to eat 2,000 calories every day, so we should get 730,000 from food in one year. Those bagels are about 7% of what you should get every year. Just the bagels!!

WARNING : do not eat to many bagels.
