one fat serving

So is 7 almonds the size of my thumb and therefore equal to one fat serving or am I being too generous?  The actual numbers according to the Nutritional Guide is:
9.5 g fat
3.8 g carbs
3.8 g protein
A tsp of olive oil is
5 g fat
0 g carbs
0 g protein
Hmmmm...doesn't seem like it is exactly the same but with my yogurt I would prefer the nuts to a tsp of olive oil.
What do you think?

  1. Jan, I think you may be eating too many blueberries. Your hand appears to be turning purplish-blue. :)

  2. I have no idea! Honestly, 5 or 7 almonds isn't going to make a huge difference, do you think? Or I guess weigh in will tell! :-)

  3. You guys are funny. Looks like the nuts are bigger than your purple thumb. Eat the nuts.
