If i ordered one fries i get this:
Which mean i can eat up to 6 of these per serving. Make sense.
Well said

Yeah, if we could stop ridiculing sience by parroting (and probably misrepresenting) stuff like this, that would be great…
When I see those headlines I don’t wonder anymore why some people dont take science as a whole seriously.

Assuming the downvotes are from people missing the joke?
The joke is that by asking for 6 fries, they’re inadvertently making 6 orders of fries
laz@pawb.social 2 weeks ago
Mine comes from the posting of a censored meme. I’ll downvote everyone of them I see. I’m so god damned fed up with the corpo-sanitised internet.

I’ve been calorie counting for a while now, and one of the things I’ve found is that if you get one average burger and medium fries, the fries are often more calories. A medium fry at Chick Fil A is 560 kcal. Personally, I’d rather get a second sandwich.
LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I can’t even eat an entire Whopper, or typical adult-size burger. I don’t how anybody puts away a second one.

By eating more than the stomach really wants over and over until it expands. Then you can eat more and more and it expands!
Then it sucks trying to eat less because the body is so user to the more the less feels like shit!
Loved having to eat until I felt sick as a kid. Totally didn’t fuck anything up. disgruntled sounds

Don’t visit Belgium.
rustydrd@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
In Belgium, they would adapt by serving you six fries that have been fried in pork fat twenty times over.
MrsDoyle@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
And then doused in mayo. Droooool.
FreddiesLantern@leminal.space 2 weeks ago
Belgian “frietkoten” have a magical capability. No matter how hard you to minimise your order. You always, and I do mean always, end up with too many. Even if you take that last extra scoop into account.

Ok, but they don’t say how many servings I should eat, so… 100 servings it is.

100 servings of fries

It was an hyperbole that flew over the journalists’ heads: https://www.sciencealert.com/you-should-only-be-eating-six-fries-per-serving-advises-harvard-nutritionist

What’s the hyperbole? The guy sounded pretty serious

43 servings per meal is standard.

Fries contain vitamin A and your body needs carbs and fat. Also, fed is best. Shut up, professor.
bobtimus_prime@feddit.org 2 weeks ago
I always get suspicious when the headline says something along “scientist says you should”. Because typical scientistic statements are more conditional: “If you do A, B might happen”, or even “B becomes more likely”.
Checking the actual quote:

Remember, the point of reporting today is not to inform, but to gain clicks.
NottaLottaOcelot@lemmy.ca 2 weeks ago
Yeah I think it was more of a hyperbolic comment to the reporter rather than an official recommendation. He thinks we should eat more greens and less fried stuff, which is in line with pretty much every nutritional guideline out there
rustydrd@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
At least for empirical research, I would go even further and say that most individual studies don’t hold much weight and that the authors of such studies shouldn’t receive too much credence until their findings have been replicated multiple times by independent researchers.
