Santa Claus.
A right jolly old elf.
If the average household has 2.3 children and there are 394 million total children in the world that receive gifts, that means Santa makes 172 million stops in one night. Assuming there is one cup of 2% milk and three cookies per house, and Santa drinks all the milk and consume 1.5 cookies, Santa will have had:
- 257,543,660 total cookies.
- 3,863,155 total kg of cookies.
- 18,543,143,441 calories from cookies.
- 738,867,170 kg milk.
- 20,946,884,258 calories from milk.
- Participate in 95,386,540 30-minute long low impact aerobics classes.
- Walk 514,382 kilometers at a 6.4 kph pace
- Play 35,965,417 games of hockey (that's with no shift change)
- Brush his teeth 3,590,002,518 times.
- Or have sex 274,236,303 times.
Unless Santa purges.
And that just ain't right.

Oh, I can totally see Santa in an eating disorder support group with the elves during the off season.
Do NOT suck the joy out of Santa for me Manatee.
I do not want to picture an upchucking Santa.
Ew.
But that's what the reindeer are for. It might *look* like they are pulling him, but he is actually *pushing* them THROUGH THE AIR. That's a significant amount of work, and probably burns through those calories right quick.
Santa has sex? ;-)
Now what is it going to take to get you to share that white chocolate, cranberry, macadamia cookie recipe????
De-lurking after discovering your blog earlier this week...
Those are some scary stats, but the scariest has to be that last bullet.
I don't want to think of Santa having sex once, let alone 274,236,303 times.
How do you know he's not really saving them to feed all of his elves and his wife for the entire year? It's not like he makes money to get all of them food.
What about really really really quick sex.
Nice post!
Maybe he takes some of the cookies home to Mrs. Claus. Or the elves. Or feeds them to the reindeer. Santa should not be having sex. Really.
