Food for Thought...
Saturday July 12, 2008
We all know by now we shouldn't super size our fast food, but did you know even fruit has been super sized in recent years? What used to be considered, for example, a medium apple is now a small. 

The FDA has updated its calorie data to reflect this change. What used to be 80 calories for a standard apple is now 130. Other examples are peaches which were 40 and are now 60 calories and oranges were 70 and are now 80 calories.
There is a benefit to the slight upsizing: The vitamin and fiber counts increased, too!
