What changes the calories
- Size varies a lot between Asian pears, so a large one can have more than twice the calories of a small one.
- Weighing the pear whole includes the core and stem, which you usually don't eat, so the edible portion weighs less than the whole fruit.
- Serving it with honey, caramel, or a syrup, or poaching it in sweetened liquid, adds the calories of those sugars.
- Dried or canned Asian pear differs from fresh: drying concentrates the calories into less weight, and canned fruit in syrup adds sugar.
Tips for logging it accurately
- Weigh the edible flesh after coring, or pick the serving size (small or large) that best matches your pear.
- Log it as raw Asian pear, not a regular pear or a canned or dried version, since those have different values.
- Snap a photo of your snack in BerryFit and check the portion size, adding any dips or toppings separately.
