      The whole nutrition facts section feels cherry picked too. Portion sizes are way too small. Every snack food ends up being 140 calories and like 27-31 grams, regardless of what it is. I wish everything was, like, per 10 grams or some other measurement from which I can extrapolate how big a piece of shit I am easily. I don’t want 27 grams of cereal, I want 40 because I’m a child trapped in an adult’s body, so now I gotta do the cross multiplying thing I learned when I was a kid, and I guess it’s good to stay fresh, but I don’t want to.

      All that being said, calorie counting apps are fantastic for anyone interested in keeping tabs on their bad habits. Not necessarily fixing them, just giving some ammo for when they’re depressed and shitting all over themselves.

        New rule. Give your product to 10 random people off the street. Get them to pour out one portion that they’d eat.

        Take the average, that’s now your portion size.

          Who decides the bowl or plate size? It has a psychological effect on how much we think we eat.

        This is why the EU went with a 100g section. You can just read that to see the relative differences between products. Us definitely did a better job of making it readable. Some allowed formats are just mushed up text.

        just eyeball it: 27=20, so double the values… there’s probably so much variance that it ends up close… but also yeah we should have some standardized serving size… I’m sure the EU has done this or something lol

      Nestle cereals also show the “calcium content: g” inside a cartoon splash of milk.

      Because you’re supplying that part yourself.

    The waves on the south sea of milk were choppy all month as we voyaged from the buttered bread bay to the coffee or tea isles., My cereal boat was rocked from tip to trough. Several were lost at sea, and those who remained had to contest with the unending motion sickness and repairs.

        There are plenty of great cereals. Fiber one is basically 75% of your daily fiber in 200 calories, You can find plenty of examples. I feel like nobody on the Internet understands the availability of trash does not exclude quality from being in a product space.

          Not a bad point to make! I eat grape nuts, which I am at least pretty sure is very decent.

          I also eat trash cereals, but typically those are replacements for candy or dessert.

      I’ll do fresh bananas or frozen berries, but it’s a waste of fresh berries and too much of a hassle for other fruit, imo.

      I do occasionally. It makes bland cereal (grape-nuts and corn flakes) palatable without just dumping a bunch of sugar on it.
