Today I woke up late and didn't end up taking a lunch to work. I grabbed $5 from the 'Fun' envelope and headed to Tim Horton's. I would like to go on record saying that I ♥ Tim Horton's for two reasons:
1. I really do.
2. I'm hoping I'm not doing anything illegal by creating a little enlightening quiz regarding the calorie content of their menu.
I've never been a calorie counter. Doing so used to add to my stress of preparing meals. Lately I've been giving it a try to see if I'm at least within an acceptable range to promote weightloss.
Today's lunch consisted of two delicious chicken salad wraps and an old fashioned glazed donut. Going online to check whether I had kept within a reasonable calorie range, I was shocked to discover that the donut was only marginally fewer calories than the two wraps combined. 'Bout fell off my chair after I read that.
Carrots and cucumbers for dinner tonight anyone?
For fun, I decided to compare some of the other items on their menu and again, was surprised by some of my findings leading me develop the quiz below, to test your knowledge!
For each of the questions (there are only ten), choose the menu item that you think has more or the same calorie content.
The calorie contents are listed plainly on Tim Horton's site if you wish to go back and see the actual numbers. Thanks, Timmies... please don't sue me!
So? How did you do? Please reassure me that some of the answers caught you by surprise as well!
I only got 50%! Whoopsie doodle!
ReplyDeleteThe old fashioned glazed donut was the one that surprised me the most.
I think I just did that wrong. LOL! I think most of the time I was chosing the lower cal one. So by the end I didn't get a single one right! Oiy vey. What is WRONG with me? I can't even remember what I was doing.
