TIL that milk has more kcal than coke. Milk with 3.5% fat has 66 kcal per 100ml whereas coke has 42 kcal.
I learned this because I decided that I will only buy something I am craving when I can accurately say how much kcal it has before looking it up. I guessed 200kcal for ~500ml of milk with chocolate flavor but I was off by almost a factor of 2, lol. I then went to a bottle of coke (330ml) and also guessed 200kcal and it was below it (140kcal).
However, I didn't buy the coke since I knew these are wasted calories. I decided to buy an apple (200g for 110kcal) and some cherries instead (500g for 300kcal).
I think I will never forget how much kcal milk and coke has now.
( pasteurized ) milk and coke are both bad for drinking 👀, and isn't it tiring calculating the cal in what you should eat or drink?

Is milk not good in low amounts? Can't say the same about coke, I guess.
and isn't it tiring calculating the cal in what you should eat or drink?
I'm not calculating, I am guessing and then checking. 👀
And I think it's good to get a feel for what has how many kcal. It already helped me to buy an apple and cherries instead of coke or milk.
I don't intend to do this forever. Will stop when I have healthy eating habits.
