Kathie Lee & Hoda: Who Knew? Trivia Check-Up
In honor of NBC Universal’s Healthy Week, the ladies tested audience members to see if they were in tip-top shape with their Who Knew? trivia game. Kathie Lee and Hoda were joined by Madelyn Fernstrom, Today Show Diet and Nutrition Expert, to help out with the answers, including Chocolate Doughnut Vs Whole Wheat Bagel and Hershey Kisses Vs Nestle Crunch Bar.
Trivia Check-Up: Burning More Calories
Kathie Lee and Hoda were celebrating NBC Universal Health Week on The Today Show and answered trivia questions on doughnut Vs bagel, Hershey Kiss Vs Nestle Crunch and burning calories.
You burn more calories when you’re asleep than when you’re awake and watching TV?
- True
- False
The correct answer is true. Madelyn said you are going to burn about twice as much when you are asleep than when you are watching TV because sleep is active and people thrash around and you burn calories because of that.
Health Week Trivia: Doughnut Vs Bagel
Which of these breakfast foods has more calories?
- Chocolate Frosted Doughnut
- Whole Wheat Bagel
The correct answer is whole wheat bagel. Madelyn said the doughnut is smaller and has 270 calories, but the bagel is bigger and is 350 calories without cream cheese or butter.
Trivia Check-Up: Sugary Drinks
Of the following four drinks, which has the most sugar?
- Minute Maid Cranberry Grape
- Coke
- Mountain Dew
- Snapple Tea
The correct answer is the Minute Maid Cranberry Grape. Madelyn said even when you have 100% juice it is full of sugar. An eight ounce serving has almost ten teaspoons of sugar. The soda and tea have about six or seven teaspoons, so they aren’t great either.
Today Show: Burning Calories
If you eat two scoops of ice cream, about how long would you have to walk to burn off the calories?
- 1 hour
- 2 hours
- 3 hours
- 5 hours
The correct answer is two hours. Madelyn said each scoop is about 100 calories and if you are taking a moderate walk it will take you about two hours to do that.
