I was wondering why when I put tea in my food diary for the from the food data base it gives me 2 calories. I know tea has no calories so I found that wierd. Does anyone know why that is?

Thanks

    Tea calories
    1.0 cup (8 fl oz) has 2 calories
    6.0 fl oz has 2 calories
    1.0 fl oz has 0 calories
    *2,000 calories is the average recommended daily intake for adults and children four or more years of age.

    It depends on the tea.
    There are some that have 0 and other that can have as much as 16.
    I know that the green tea that I drink-it is 0
    The loose leaf that I drink-3
