If food labels told you how many burpees you had to do or how many miles you had to run in order to burn the calories of what you're about to put in your mouth, it may get you to think twice before munching on another snack, or gulping down another can of soda.
In fact, for every 20 ounce can of soda pop that you chug, you'd have to walk 10,000 steps to burn off the 250 calories of that drink. That's about five miles for an average person with a stride of 2.5 feet or 50 minutes of running. Unfortunately, most people with sedentary jobs and lives only take an average of 1,000 steps a day.
All those extra unburned calories from that 20-ounce can, along with all the unburned calories from everything else you eat - they get converted into fat in the body.
