The Calorie Counter

Okay. I'm checking out various diet sites. Calorie counting always worked best for me so I found this one (comes up first when you Google "Calorie Counter") and it looks pretty good. You can search for food types, for example Chicken thighs and it brings up a label with the calories and other nutritional facts.

Click on search and you can run a query.

A large apple, according to this, has more calories than a piece of chicken. I was pretty surprised about that.

And the really bad news - how about a slice of cheese cake!

Ouch!

But I guess it's better to know than to stay clueless and fat!
