Calories in bread?

I realized today on my bread that it says 1 slice has 100 calories but 2 slices has 190 calories. Why isn't it 200? How does this work?

    Magic... or the database entry is wrong?

    More likely the rounding errors inherent (and allowed) in product labeling.

    Did you have 2 containers of bread? Is it possible the one piece is the last piece and the bread company knew you'd be logging on MFP? The universe of nutrition is a strange land. Good luck and continue logging.

    Weigh your bread if you want a more accurate calorie count
