What changes the calories
- Dried blueberries have had their water removed, so they pack far more calories into the same weight than fresh berries.
- Frozen blueberries without added sugar are close to fresh, but sweetened frozen berries or berries canned in syrup carry extra calories from the added sugar.
- Baking blueberries into muffins, pies or pancakes adds the calories of the flour, butter and sugar around them, which usually far outweigh the berries themselves.
- Cup measurements vary with how loosely or tightly the berries are packed, so a heaping cup can hold noticeably more than the 148 g standard.
Tips for logging it accurately
- Weigh your blueberries on a kitchen scale when you can, since weight is more reliable than cups or handfuls.
- Log the exact form you ate, choosing raw blueberries for fresh or unsweetened frozen, and a separate entry for dried, sweetened or canned versions.
- Log toppings and pairings like yogurt, granola, honey or cream separately, or snap a photo in BerryFit to capture the whole bowl at once.
