Practice Wellness Trivia #1

A medium banana has more calories compared to a medium apple. Bananas are generally higher in calories due to their higher sugar content. On average, a medium banana contains around 105 calories, while a medium apple contains around 95 calories. Therefore, if you are looking for a lower-calorie option, the medium apple would be the better choice.

The regular-size Nestle Crunch bar has more calories compared to 1 ounce of Kraft string cheese.

The Starbucks Grande Mocha Frappuccino (no whipped cream) has more calories compared to the 6 ounce baked potato with 3 tablespoons sour cream and 1 tablespoon chopped chives.

Sierra Nevada Pale Ale has more calories than Guinness Extra Stout.

The 9 oz. Mai Tai has more calories because it contains more ingredients that are typically high in calories, such as multiple types of rum, crème de almond, triple sec, and sweet and sour mix. Additionally, the Mai Tai has a higher alcohol content compared to the Piña Colada, which also contributes to its higher calorie count.

Broccoli has more calories compared to asparagus.

The explanation for the given correct answer is that 1 large egg scrambled has more calories compared to 1 slice of cooked cured pork bacon (pan fried). Eggs are known to be a good source of calories, especially when cooked with added ingredients like oil or butter. On the other hand, bacon, although high in fat, typically has fewer calories per serving compared to eggs. Therefore, the scrambled egg would have more calories than the slice of bacon.

Ruth's Chris Petit Filet has more calories compared to 1 slice of a Domino's 14" Pepperoni Pizza (Classic Hand-Tossed Crust).

Raisins are dried grapes, which means they have a higher concentration of sugar and therefore more calories compared to fresh grapes. Additionally, raisins are denser and take up less space, so a cup of raisins contains more grapes than a cup of fresh grapes. On the other hand, a Snickers bar is a candy bar that typically contains chocolate, nougat, caramel, and peanuts. While it is high in calories, it is likely to have fewer calories compared to a cup of raisins due to its smaller size and lower sugar content.
