What do 2 thousand calories look like in the form of fast food dishes
The FDA in the United States recommends consuming about 2,000 calories a day. Of course, when we cook at home, it is quite easy to calculate and execute.
However, sometimes you don't want homemade dishes, but harmful, but for some reason very tasty food from popular fast food restaurants. And then the question arises: how many dishes, for example at McDonald's, are enough to get an average daily calorie allowance?
This photo series shows what food from 9 American fast food chains containing 2,000 calories looks like. And although many photos show a portion at one time, in fact, each of them shows everything that is recommended to eat for the whole day.
