Surface area = calories!!
I know this has nothing to do with Real Estate, but it’s still interesting!
The humble potato might be a staple of most diets, but the form you eat it in makes a HUGE difference to how many calories you are consuming. The issue is the surface area of the potato, which absorbs fat as it cooks, which increases calories. Here is the sad truth:
One potato cooked = 70 calories
Cut in half and baked = 150 calories
Cut into straight fries = 200 calories
Cut into crinkle fries = 240 calories
Cut into McDonalds style thin fries = 320 calories
Cut into potato crisps = 500 calories!
So if you want to start the year well and enjoy potatoes, eat them whole, ether baked in their jackets, boiled or mashed (but no butter)
