Sugar and candy average about 18 one-hundred-calorie portions per pound. Thick sirups (honey, sirup, molasses) average about 13 1/2 one-hundred-calorie portions per pound. Jelly, jams, marmalades, and rich preserves average about 9 one-hundred-calorie portions per pound. At a rough estimate the above items would equal about 4 1/2 pounds of sugar. 18 X 4 1/2 would equal 81 one hundred caloric portions; or

This would equal 7875 calories, which is slightly below the required amount, but sufficiently accurate.

No. 5. U. S. Department of Agriculture chart showing vegetables and fruits fresh, canned, and dried, which together supply about 160 one-hundred-caloric portions, or 16,000 calories. Any other combination of ordinary vegetables and fruits equivalent to 70 pounds of fresh material would supply about the same amount of body fuel. If more bulk is needed in the diet, it is better to supply it from vegetables and fruits than from the richer foods.
