My Choice #10

I stole Kristin's idea, my blog is based on fun facts about food since it was somewhat hard to find fun facts about specific dessert foods. I tried to find as many dessert related foods but some are food facts. Hopefully my blog will be insightful and interesting and you will leave my page learning something!


  • Whenever a recipe for cake or muffins calls for oil, applesauce can be substituted.

  • The world record for eating cheesecake is 11 pounds eaten in nine minutes – by Sonya Thomas, who weighs 105 pounds.

  • The smaller the size of a berry, the sweeter its taste.

  • Each American eats an average of 51 pounds of chocolate per year.

  • World wide, consumers spend more than $7 billion a year on chocolate.

  • Americans eat 20.7 pounds of candy per person annually.

  • The average chocolate bar has 8 insects' legs in it.

  • Every second, Americans collectively eat one hundred pounds of chocolate

  • To burn off one plain M&M candy, you need to walk the full length of a football field.

It is crazy to go on a website and find random facts about things you could never imagine! I think it is a good connection for anyone to research facts about their project to learn new things and possible give people insight that will make them think. As shown today in class, everyone was so overwhelmed about what they were hearing or reading about things that they see or do on a daily basis. I recommend everyone to google random facts about their senior project and then write a blog about it and everyone will be shocked as to what they read. Overall, I learned a lot today by researching facts about food and desserts.
