A surprising revelation

Today, just on a whim, I decided to calculate how many calories I eat for breakfast. My standard breakfast is two slices of whole wheat toast (flax!) with peanut butter, and a glass of orange juice. I never knew how much peanut butter I was putting on my toast, so I decided to pull out my kitchen scale and do a before-and-after measurement, which revealed that I was putting about 20g of peanut butter, about one and a third tablespoons.

Looked at all the packages, figured it all out... 500 calories.

What?!? Crazy! It's two pieces of toast and a freakin' glass of orange juice! That works out to 500 calories?!?

Maybe it's time to start hunting for a new standard breakfast...
