** Big Macs is the proportion of energy in a big Mac to the food. Example 1.70 means there is 1.70 more energy in the food than in a big Mac per 100g
I read this in a running magazine - you get enough energy in a Jelly Baby to run for 4 minutes, or just over 1/2 mile I think. 10 mile walk? Eat 20 Jelly Babies (a bag of them)
