    Out of curiosity, how many watts did my brain just consume contemplating the nose, flavor profile, mouth feel, food pairing selection, and post-dining cordial choices of said titties?

        This is such a silly technical argument that I’ve seen twice now in this thread. Watts is just Joules/second. It’s entirely valid to wonder “what rate am I ‘consuming’ energy when I do X” rather than ask “how much energy did I ‘consume’ when I do X”

        Making this correction is similar to telling someone that asking how fast they moved is wrong, and they should only ask how far they moved.
