How to weigh rice properly?
The nutrition reads on the wholegrain rice I'm cooking to put 75g of rice in a pot then so and so water. Apparently 75g is 89 calories. When it cooked I thought that was a LOT of rice for 89 calories so I assume this is wrong. When I put into MFP the rice and 75g it came up the same 89 calories. How can water add calories?…

How many calories does pan frying add?
I’m pan frying my pork chop in a mixture of olive oil and butter. How many calories does the oil and butter add, roughly? I figured you can’t just add the total calories to the meal because you’re not actually eating all of the oil and butter, just shallow frying in it. Please forgive me if it’s a silly question, it’s my…
