National Debt Illustration

By: Jie Hua Yu

What am I doing for this project
I used how much money it would cost to buy a
big box of Mott’s Medleys fruit snacks followed by
the amount of fruit snacks they would have to eat
to prevent food hunger and compare that to the
US National Debt.

Every big box of Mott’s Medleys fruit snacks is

($22.73 including sales tax of 8.25%) 4 pounds
containing 80 pouches of about 8 fruit snacks.
 President debts and the number
of fruit snacks each president
would have to buy and eat
President & Debt # of fruit snacks to eat

Jimmy Carter ($1 Trillion) Eating 640,000,000,000,000 fruit snacks

Ronald Reagan ($2.7 Trillion) Eating 1,728,000,000,000,000 fruit snacks

George H.W. Bush ($4.2 Trillion) Eating 2,688,000,000,000,000 fruit snacks

Bill Clinton ($5.7 Trillion) Eating 3,648,000,000,000,000 fruit snacks

George W. Bush ($10.6 Trillion) Eating 6,784,000,000,000,000 fruit snacks

Barack Obama ($19.5 Trillion) Eating 12,480,000,000,000,000 fruit snacks

Since each pack of fruit snacks contain about 8 fruit snack
gummies, if you divide the amount of 1 box of the fruit snacks
and multiply that by the amount of pouches and fruit snacks
within the pouches, you get an atrocious number that
unfortunately each president is going to have to eat.
