Look away now snack-lovers and those partial to a cheeky takeaway
#1 Would you eat this if the calories were displayed prominently on the front? Scroll down to find out how many..
A little bit of what you fancy supposedly does you good. But what if even a little bit amounted to a lot - and therefore probably wasn't that good for you?
It's hard to resist a nice bowlful of Ben and Jerry's, or a few spoonfuls of Nutella straight of the jar (when you think no one's looking) and we are aware which foods are unapologetically calorific.
But when the calorie count is in teeny-tiny writing on the back of a packet, or on the brand's website, it's easy to ignore.
After all, no one wants to become that bore rattling off their encyclopedic knowledge of which foods contain however many calories.
However, for those of you who are curious, Calorie Brands have re-imagined and redesigned our favourite snacks and treats - and revealed their true calorific nature.
So take a look and be enlightened by the nine below, and bear in mind a man's daily calorie allowance is 2500 MAX, and a woman's allowance is 2000 MAX .
#2 French fries
Calories: 515
Percentage of a man's daily allowance: 20 per cent
Percentage of a woman's daily allowance: 25 per cent
Perhaps no surprises here. And as the folk behind Calorie Brands say themselves, "Lovin' it for 5 minutes and hatin' it for 3 months."
#3 Snickers bar
Calories: 250
Percentage of a man's daily allowance: 10 per cent
Percentage of a woman's daily allowance: 12.5 per cent
Bad news for chocolate lovers, the chocolate bar formerly known as a Marathon requires one to burn off the calories it contains (well, a decent run at any rate).
#4 A bottle of vodka
Calories: 1625
Percentage of a man's daily allowance: 65 per cent
Percentage of a woman's daily allowance: 81.25 per cent
OK, we're not suggesting you drink an entire bottle of vodka in one sitting. But the overall count does show that even clear spirits add up, calorie-wise.
#5 Pizza
Calories: 1680
Percentage of a man's daily allowance: 67.2 per cent
Percentage of a woman's daily allowance: 84 per cent
There are times when nothing else except for pizza will do (especially if you've enjoyed a few vodkas the night before), but, unsurprisingly, there is a price to pay for this.
#6 Ben & Jerry's
Calories: 1200
Percentage of a man's daily allowance: 48 per cent
Percentage of a woman's daily allowance: 60 per cent
It can sometimes feel as if Ben and Jerry are the only men you can rely on. Just make sure you don't rely on them too much.
#7 Red Bull
Calories: 110
Percentage of a man's daily allowance: 4.4 per cent
Percentage of a woman's daily allowance: 5.5 per cent
Wings aren't the only thing a can of Red Bull will give you.
#8 Whopper
Calories: 650
Percentage of a man's daily allowance: 26 per cent
Percentage of a woman's daily allowance: 32.5 per cent
Twinned with a portion of fries, a Whopper meal accounts for half of your daily allowance.
#9 Ketchup
Calories: 760
Percentage of a man's daily allowance: 30.4 per cent
Percentage of a woman's daily allowance: 38 per cent
Again, the likelihood of consuming an entire bottle of ketchup in one sitting is low. But in case you are, let this guide your judgement.
#10 Nutella
Calories: 4520
Percentage of a man's daily allowance: 180.8 per cent
Percentage of a woman's daily allowance: 225.99 per cent
So if you're ever tempted to devour a jar of Nutella in one sitting, just don't.
