Yes, I knew how many calories they are - but really, they are usually
shared. Two for lunch, 4 or more for an appetizer. Haven't done it
in decades. Frankly, I didn't know anyone who eats like that anymore.
Maybe the young, healthy and active can get away with it - but I'm not
young anymore, and I'm definitely not as active as I was 35 years ago.
At least I can put a + in the healthy column (knock on wood).
