[–] frog@feddit.uk 14 points 1 week ago (1 child) Damn... how much was that chicken in Whole Foods? permalink fedilink source hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] snooggums@piefed.world 18 points 1 week ago (2 children) They are about $8 for roughly 2 lbs at about 1000 calories a lb if you eat the skin and all the meat. That would be completely reasonable as a large meal as it is about half the daily calories for an average sized male teenager, especially if they are very active. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] darkdemize@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 week ago (6 children) Am I misreading your comment, or are you saying an average male teen needs 4000 calories a day? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 12 child comments replies: [–] NoPanko@feddit.uk 18 points 1 week ago (2 children) If they are active then yeah, 4000 calories is not at all unusual as a teen. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] pineapplelover@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 1 week ago (1 child) Damn, maybe that's why I didn't grow permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Drusas@fedia.io 11 points 1 week ago This is unironically a big part of why people, on average, used to be shorter and why populations become taller as their country/region becomes wealthier. permalink fedilink source parent [–] CultLeader4Hire@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago And not empty calories, that’s the important part permalink fedilink source parent [–] captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 week ago Easily. From 14-17 I lived on a 5,000 calorie diet and struggled to gain weight, between marching band, PE, shop class, an avid skating hobby, a girlfriend, and growing in height. I could have easily eaten an entire chicken at the time. permalink fedilink source parent [–] a_non_monotonic_function@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago Growing takes a lot of calories. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Andonyx@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago If you're a bad enough dude, a whole rotisserie chicken is only one heart. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Rivalarrival@lemmy.today 3 points 1 week ago Yeah, pretty much. I remember eating 4000 to 6000 calories a day in high school. I could put away two double whopper meals - large fries, large coke - in a sitting. Or a 16" pizza, with plenty of room for Jo-jos. Or 4 big plates of spaghetti, with half a loaf of garlic bread, and salad until there was no more salad to be had. I was scrawny. Too scrawny for high school sports. 5'9", but I didn't break 100lbs until my senior year. permalink fedilink source parent [–] snooggums@piefed.world 1 point 1 week ago If they are physically active, yes. permalink fedilink source parent [–] frog@feddit.uk 4 points 1 week ago (1 child) $8 doesn't sound that bad for Whole Foods.
