How can I easily figure out what percent of calories from fat a food is?

Healing Heart Foundation - Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
The simplest way is to find the number of calories per serving is to divide the number of calories from fat by the total calories. If the label shows how many calories from fat, then just divide. For example, a food with 150 calories per serving, 25 from fat = 17% calories from fat (25 ÷ 150 = 16.67) A very simple method to find foods under 10% calories from fat is to only consume those that have one gram of fat, or less, per hundred calories.

Where do you get your waste vegetable oil?

FAQ - Bytesmiths
We collect it for free from restaurants. Burger joints and bar-n-grills are poor choices -- the high concentration of animal fats makes the oil too thick. Lots of french-frys fills the oil with water-holding starch. Oriental restaurants seem to have the best oil. We prowl back-alleys, looking for oil dumpsters, open the lid to see if it's particularly nasty, dip a stick in and see what the consistency is and where the "crud level" is, then ask for permission, then begin pumping!

Is palm oil a trans fat?

Malaysian Palm Oil Promotion Council (MPOPC)
No. Palm oil's natural semi-solid properties and the versatility of blending with its solid fraction, palm stearin, makes hydrogenation of palm oil unnecessary. Therefore, food products containing palm oil as its sole or main fat ingredient are essentially trans-free.

Why don't you count calories, fat, carbs, fiber etc.?

No Weight Gain Cookbooks / Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
We've all been programmed to believe that losing weight and regaining good health has to be done through complicated diets, which include counting everything. This is no way to live. It is very discouraging, time consuming, and emotionally draining to count calories etc., weigh foods or do all the complicated things most diets require. All that I have accomplished for myself was not done through eating by numbers.

Do you really run on waste vegetable oil (WVO)?

FAQ - Bytesmiths
Yes! In the summer of 2004, about 1/3rd of our 14,000 kilometer (8,700 mile) trans-continental journey was on WVO. (The other 2/3rds was on diesel due to expediency and injury.) In winter 2005, we did a 1100 kilometer (700mile) trip, using only 50 liters (13 gallons) of petro-diesel, again due to expediency. Our summer 2005 trip had more issues (blown transmission), but we still managed to burn about 120 gallons of WVO. We're hoping to more-or-less go with nothing but WVO in the summer of 2006.

How can I tell whether a food product contains trans fat?

Malaysian Palm Oil Promotion Council (MPOPC)
Read the food product label. Watch out for the following words on the label which suggest that the product contains trans fat: "partially hydrogenated", "polyunsaturated margarine", "elaidic acid", and "hardened". Sometimes the amount of TFAs is included in the total saturated fatty acid count on the food label, in which case a footnote to the nutrition information may be provided to indicate the actual amount of TFAs. Alternatively, they could be separately labelled as trans fatty acids.

How much fat and calories are in a Krispy Kreme doughnut?

Northwest Personal Training and Fitness Education
That depends on which type of doughnut you're considering buying. One doughnut will provide you with 210-340 calories, 9-20 fat grams, and 16-23 grams of sugar. The problem though with Krispy Kreme doughnuts is that they are so light and airy that you just can't seem to stop at one. So multiply the above figures by two and three and four and so on and you're asking for trouble. Ask yourself what's triggering the eating binge. It's probably not hunger because you said you eat dinner.
