What changes the calories
- Pouring straight from the bottle usually gives more than a measured tablespoon, so free-poured portions often carry more calories than expected.
- When you cook with avocado oil, some stays in the pan and some is absorbed by the food, so the amount you actually eat depends on the dish and how much is left behind.
- Spray oils and brushed-on oil coat food more thinly than poured oil, which tends to mean fewer calories per use.
- Cooking does not change the calories in the oil itself; heat changes how much ends up on your plate, not the oil's energy content.
Tips for logging it accurately
- Measure oil with a spoon or weigh it on a kitchen scale before it goes in the pan, since small amounts add up quickly at 124 calories per tablespoon.
- When cooking for several people, log the total oil used and divide it by the number of portions to get your share.
- In BerryFit, add the oil as its own entry alongside the dish you scan, so the cooking fat isn't missed.
