Putting Things into Perspective

So for anyone out there who has ever wondered how many cups of spinach you'd have to eat to equal two slices of whole wheat bread (queue Wheaties commercial flashback),...well consider your wish fulfilled.

Harder. Better. Faster. Stronger. blog has posted an interesting comparison between super high carb foods like rice, corn, beans, and potatoes (ya know, those foods we all eat cos they are "healthy") and pits those against your leafy greens and broccoli.

So wait...I'd have to eat how many cups of bell peppers to equal one cup of oatmeal? Only...unlike Santa's Super Sugar Puffs...this comparison works in favor of the bell pepper.
