How long to burn one serving
About 7,000 steps, or 55 minutes of brisk walking for an average adult.
How we count: an adult of 75 kg and 175 cm walking at 5.6 km/h burns (4.3 − 1) × 75 = 247.5 kcal an hour above resting. Steps are distance divided by a stride of 0.415 × height. That's about 31 steps per kcal. The Kalorea app uses your own height and weight.
Soup is mostly water, so the bowl size and what's floating on top (sour cream, oil, meat) decide the number.
