I just ate 2800 kilojoules worth o

Which is about 700 calories.

Believe it or not, thats actually quite a bit of rice (two cups, dry). I thought rice had more energy in it than that, but I guess there's basically no fat in it, it's just all carbs. Bummer. Now I'm gonna see if I've got any canned tuna left, so I can get some protein into me. Getting hungry again...

Speaking of calories, you'd be surprised by how many people don't know what a calorie is. I admit I had forgotten its definition, but it's something that people just take for granted without thinking or knowing what it represents.

Mmmm, pork fried rice, good stuff.

Yeah, a lot of people throw it around with no clue of what it means. It actually goes all the way back to when they thought heat was an actuall substance that flowed from one object to another. I believe it was called 'caloric' or something similar.

Anyways, I just had a look at food.com.au and worked out that I'd in fact eaten about 1440 calories worth of rice, which is close to 6000 kilojoules. I thought 1 serving of rice was one cup... boy was I mistaken.

I've also eaten about 800 grams of topside today (I made biltong), so I've got more than enough protein for the day

rice is awesome, if cooked properly.

you gotta try the variations, like cheesy rice. Rice with beans is awesome also, so is rice with beans, but the beans have a spice on em (my mom does this) its kickass.
