Men’s Health has a visual comparative in sugary drinks and their equivalents (semi truthful). It’s provoking to see how an Energy drink has the same calorie count as gulping down 6 Krispy Kreme donuts. Anyhow, just a reminder that visually telling a story always says more than pure text. I’ve always wanted the word calories to turn into something people  understood, like miles. Instead of 25 calories, why not just say 1 mile, since people somewhat understand how much energy it takes to walk/run a mile, hence deciding against certain foods, snacks, and drinks

See the rest after the jump.
