I just got back from the supermarket.\u00a0 The check-out counter was overflowing with Easter candy.\u00a0 It took all the willpower and want power I could muster not to buy one or two or ten Cadbury eggs not to mention the marshmallow peeps, chocolate bunnies and jellybeans, but I made way past it all, fruit in hand.<\/p>\n

It occurred to me that using Easter as ‘a special occasion excuse’ to eat\u00a0 is a sure fired way to stay fat!!!<\/p>\n

Just for the thrill of it when I got home, I did a bit of research.
\nIf you are curious to know just how many calories are in your Easter basket, read on!
\n(You want to know, don’t you?)<\/em><\/p>\n

Here follows an EASTER Calorie Guide<\/strong> for you!<\/p>\n

\n1 Caramel Cadbury Egg \/ 190 calories
