When I had finished my shopping I went back to my … Read More »
Last week I was reading a very interesting article about carbs and how to burn them off. (wallchart for gluttons) I was struck by the ‘value’ of carbs/calories of some these foods. One sausage roll has 61 cals and yet a cream cheese/smoke salmon bagal 229 cals… found that a shocker! I am not and have never been a carb/cal counter and was amazed ..who knew (yep bet you all did) that one mug of hot chocolate has 215 cals and yet a slice of garlic bread has 145… I do love both as it happens, but garlic bread with all that dribbling butter less than … Read More »
