Meaningless, because it is not possible to measure the calories of
food that is actually eaten because incineration of the food would be
required.

More meaningful is the estimated total amount of food being:

44 to 54 ounces or more.

Because, this estimate could have been replaced with an actual
measurement thereby allowing you to eat less, down to the right
amount.

Be hungry... be healthy... be hungrier... be euglycemic...

Prayerfully in the awesome name of LORD Jesus Christ,
