They should also post information about how much calories are burned by the simple act of walking or jogging.

Stupid liberals.

It's pretty disgusting when you read how hard you have to exercise to burn off what it took you minutes to eat. A 180 pound man burns about 100 calories a mile at a brisk 3.5mph. You'd have to walk 6 miles and kill two hours of your day just to burn off that one cookie.

Approximately, 100 calories per mile.

It takes me about an hour to complete a 15.5 mile bike ride, depending on how many traffic lights I have to stop for. Burns about 1,000 calories. 100 situps is worth another 100 or so.
