Note: All ‘imaginary’ human fat will be sourced from Liposuction facilities.
Of course, in heavy traffic you are burning up the bio-fuel/fat getting nowhere.
Fuel Consumption (F) can plummet, even for the Mini, from 3.4 kg/ 100 km to 6.8 kg/100 km to 8.8 kg/100km. You may as well get out of the car and walk!!

The sugar content for easter eggs is: 55-65% by weight
So we will assume the sugar content of the giant egg was in the middle:
60%
The weight of sugar in the giant egg equals:

Mathspig has been tracking the Covid 19 Stats through the Worldometer tracker and calculating the AVERAGE NO. DEATHS per day at the 50, 60, 70, 80,, 100 and now, the 200 DAY mark. The average is still rising which, as the average started low, is not good news. What can I say? Mask Up, folks.
