How much is 365 Gallons?

365 gallons of water seems like a lot. So when I tell you I'm putting myself on a diet of only 365 gallons of water per day, that doesn't seem hard at all.

Maybe I should explain. I'm putting myself on a diet where the food I eat each day should require less than 365 gallons per day to grow or feed. Still sounds easy, I'll bet. Let me show you an example of how many hamburgers I can eat for 375 gallons

I don't plan to starve myself - in fact, I can eat pretty well for 365 gallons. I just won't be able to eat many hamburgers.
