We had our first annual Guac Off today at lunch, and while I had intended to give it a pass, it was guacamole and I figured id stick to the tasting only and take the calorie hit. So, I did. I had 6 corn chips and about 3 tablespoons of the guacamole for a total of 185 calories.
The guac wasn't the issue. The chips were. One serving of chips was 9 chips for almost 180 calories. Who the hell can only eat 9 freakin' chips? No one. As a group, the people taking part in the taste set polished off almost 3 bags of chips or about 70 servings. Yeah, almost 11,000 calories just in chips. I love chips, but I stuck to the bare minimum to make my decision about the guac.
So, yes, I did eat today's offering, but did it with moderation and kept it reasonable... not something I have a good track record at doing. Small steps, right?
