Our supporter Casey Neistat made a wonderful documentary film for theNew York Times , he went and equate the literal calories of food to what ’s list on the nutriment fact . And gauge what ? More times than not , food had more gram calorie than what was advertise .
It ’s a gripping cogitation because though calories can rule our build obsess ( or shape obese , depending on your perspective ) society , they ’re kind of doing it with an unseeable hand . How many hoi polloi really screw how to scientifically weigh kilocalorie ? How many people take what ’s listed on the nutrition facts as evangel ? What if we ’re being lied to all this time !
Casey Neistat took five items : a gem , a tofu sandwich , a Subway sandwich , a Starbucks Frappuccino and a Chipotle burrito and wreak it to food scientists at the New York Obesity Nutrition Research Center at St. Luke’s - Roosevelt Hospital Center to essay each solid food ’s caloric content . In total , four out of the five foods he tested had more gram calorie than what the recording label enjoin ( a Tofu sandwich had more than double the calories listed , only Subway came in at under the Nutrition Facts . Go Jared ! ) . Those unaccounted Calorie supply up to an extra 550 calories ! People obsessed with counting Calorie would never know about this bleary math . People who do n’t care about calories are eating even more than they should be . And the wild matter ? No one verifies the accuracy of these calories . society can number whatever the hell they want !
