My New York ~ 120,000 Calories


At least twice a month for the past five years I have had occasion to walk by a small snack shop in midtown Manhattan. My attention is always drawn to the Cherry Cheese Cake featured on the third shelf of the desert counter. I have not as yet stopped to partake of this tempting treat. Estimating that one slice contains at least 1000 calories I figure I have saved at least 120,000 calories.
