Clicking your mouse apparently burns 1.42 calories. That's according to "Convert Anything to Calories," published by PHP Science, which crunched the numbers based on muscle movement in a human index finger. You burn 195 micromoles of adenosine triphosphate (whatever that is) to perform one mouse click.

Here's how it translates to me.  176 clicks equals 1 Snickers Bar. 148 clicks equals a pack of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups.  I don't know about you but I"m getting excited...and hungry.

OK, maybe a couple of clicks isn't going to help you slide into your skinny jeans, but for those of us who click a LOT, it helps, Weeee! Meet you at the candy machine:)D
