Hi chewy,

Here is a great post by Jeff Novick explaining how to calculate Calorie Density:

viewtopic.php?f=22&t=52156&p=534084&hilit=how+to+calculate+calorie+density#p534084

With this info, you can use Cronometer.com to help calculate the answer yourself.

Cheers,
Scott

Thanks Katy for this link. I've been looking for Ray's blog. I miss him on this board. That is a great explanation of calorie density.
