Fun Food Trivia

Tweet

I don't know about you but there are times I feel as big as an elephant because of all the food I ate. That is where the first little piece of trivia comes in. During your lifetime, you'll eat about 60,000 pounds of food, that's the weight of about 6 elephants. Isn't that incredible? No wonder I feel so heavy sometimes. While we are on the subject of eating there is a little known fact that the average person will eat approximately 35,000 cookies in their lifetime. It boggles the mind to think of how many cookies a dedicated snacker will pack away during their life. Now, the next time you think about popping that piece of candy in your mouth, this may help you stop. Did you know that carnauba wax, which is a key ingredient in car wax is also contained in gummy bears and fruit flavored snacks? That may just put you off of the candy for a little while. I just love these little fun pieces of trivia. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
