33,000 calories a DAY? I'm just trying to get my mind around that. Imagine how much all that would cost! How can someone with an ordinary middle-class income even afford to eat that much?
Well, he ended up having to re-morgage his house and when he did he spent half of the money on food.

Also, when the people were asked how many calories they thought they were consuming they figured between 2000-5000. That is some major unerestimation!
