I spoke about my inability to stop at one or two of these freeze dried chocolate covered strawberries, no matter how mindfully I tried to consume them….what can I say ??♀️ I like larger portions and I’m human!
⠀
I thought it would be interesting to compare the chocolate freeze dried strawberries to chocolate AND strawberries. I’ve even added my favourite lightly salted, slightly sweet popcorn to the mix, variety is key ?
⠀ ⠀
LEFT
4 dark chocolate covered freeze dried strawberries (100g)
⠀
VS
⠀
RIGHT
500g Strawberries (2 punnets)
5 squares Lindt 70% dark chocolate
1 serving (20g) Lightly Salted, Slightly Sweet Popcorn
⠀ ⠀
Does the amount on the right surprise you?
This is another example of portion distortion! ⠀
I like having 2 (ok fine 3!) with fresh strawberries ? the best of both worlds ?❤️

Calorie breakdown:
500g strawberries 126 calories
5 squares Lindt 70% dark chocolate 281 calories
