If you divide 40 by 27 you get a ration of ~1.48 so take that and multiply by 120 calories in the Nabisco cookie and you end up with ~178 calories. So it changes the differences section slightly but they are still pretty close. Definitely agree, but like you say the point here is the human body is not meant to run on cookies. If these things were like $8.99/pack and marketed as an aid to a good diet this post would probably not exist(heck I'd probably buy a pack, I want some cookies), but the price is pretty crazy and their claim/directions are too. @kurisu : That is one thing that I noticed recently too was the weight in grams per serving.

If you want to compare apples to apples:
Hollywood cookie = 150 calories
Nabisco Cookies = 178 calories

It takes approximately 1.5 of the Nabisco cookies to equal one of the Hollywood cookies. If you compare equal weights of both cookies it will change your comparison figures by a good margin. It makes no difference to your point which I agree with wholeheartedly. Of course you realize the serving size is different.

I also recently read David's book early this year that led me to an application that allows me to view my entire GTD at work on my Win machine, at home on my Macs and even on my iPhone. And another app lets me call in tasks to my GTD without any writing or typing, great for those thoughts that hit me while driving. I've written about my experiences with GTD in a blog post at http://johnkendrick.wordpress.com/2008/03/27/more-getting-things-done/ John You sound a lot like me.

A mobile version and iCal are available too. Hope you like it. For implementing GTD you can try this web-based application:
