Why would a vegetarian diet have less calories? I could eat cups of rice drowned in olive oil and suck down a gallon of Coca Cola a day and I'd still be Vegan.

- epmaybe 9y agoIt's less dense, so you generally feel more full than if you eat more dense foods like meats. That's just personal experience though.
- undersuit 9y agoA pound of rice and a pound of meat contain equivalent calories. I do agree with your experience though. Throw a bit of squash and onions in with your bland rice and you'll feel bloated in no time.
- epmaybe 9y agoBut a pound of rice takes up more physical volume than a pound of meat, right? I also would have thought that meat was more energy sense given the fat content, but that is fascinating!
