https://foodstruct.com/food/cheesecake 5.5g per 100g serving, and it's a pretty balanced protein. The fat combined with carbs makes it relatively low glycemic index at 50. Also at about 5:1 carbs to protein it's pretty close to the 4:1 ratio recommended for endurance athletes by Edmund R. Burke, PhD. One of my professors would say, "There are no junk foods only junk diets."

cheesecake is a dish best served cold

Some foods are surprisingly Macro friendly too. I eat more slices of American cheese than I thought it was possible to on a diet.

Me: on a budget reading nutrition information to find the calories per dollar

People are always talking 'miles per gallon'. I had a nerdy friend who kept the data and tracked 'dollars per mile'.

Pretty easy to do in excel. Or on a napkin.

I bought my Honda Civic about 9 years ago for, let's just say 20k including interest on the loan. I could look more into it, but let's say $500 a year on average for service and $1000 a year on insurance. Gas has been pretty constantly $3/gal and mileage at 30 miles per gallon so that's ten cents a mile. Driven 110,000 miles so that's $11,000 in gasoline.

So all and all ownership has been about 20k+4.5k+9k+11k or $45,000 divided by 110,000 miles.

That's about 40 cents a mile. Woooo! I'm probably under estimating the service costs as they have really escalated recently. The IRS says it costs 55 cents a mile to service a car. So yeah. You shouldn't think of any short trip as free. It probably costs 50 cents to drive every mile.

You're paying $5000 per year, which is in line with this Study which estimates 5500€ per year

I have a spreadsheet I put in price, calories, and macros. Tells me everything like cal/$ , each macro /$, but most importantly my final weighted value based on those things that gives me a rough "best" foods, with color scaling, that arent pure carbs.
