What changes the calories
- Pear size varies a lot, so a large pear can have noticeably more calories than a small one.
- The core and stem are not usually eaten, so weighing a whole pear overstates what you actually ate unless you subtract them.
- Canned pears in syrup gain calories from the added sugar, while pears packed in water or juice add less.
- Dried pears are much more calorie-dense by weight because the water is removed, so a small handful adds up quickly.
Tips for logging it accurately
- Weigh your pear, or the slices you actually eat, for the most accurate count instead of guessing by size.
- Log it as raw pear for fresh fruit, and choose a canned or dried entry if that is the form you ate, since they differ from fresh.
- Snap a photo of your snack in BerryFit to log the pear along with any toppings like yogurt, nut butter or cheese, which add their own calories.
