How do you know how many calories are in your food?

In: Nutrition, Calorie Count [Edit categories]

Answer:

If you are eating processed food the number of calories per serving should be listed on the package under "Nutrition Facts". If you are eating at a restaurant, you can ask to see the nutrition facts of the food you want to order or you can check online before you go out to eat. Most restaurants show the nutritional information of their different food choices on their website.
If you would like to keep track of the number of calories you consume daily, there are many Calorie Count websites out there that will help you with that. See the Related Links below.
