I was wondering if anyone had tried to guess at the whole foods (from the self serve bakery) cranberry/walnut rolls? I forgot to weigh one when I had one yesterday. They are quite dense with little pieces of walnuts and cranberries. I asked at the bakery and they said they only had nutrition information on the cranberry walnut bread which is a large loaf and it's so hard to tell what they would even mean by a slice as it's up to you to determine slice thickness, and the slices in the center would be longer etc. I'm usually fairly confident at estimating but I really have no clue on this. I've googled around a bit and seen anything from a little over 100 calories to 400 calories so a huge difference!

I really love this roll with some sliced turkey, veggies and mustard but it's so hard to track!

Thanks very much!

    If nutrition info isn't published, I boycott the store...

    j/k, but not by much! I just use something similar from a reputable source like Panera, Trader Joes, etc. I found this one that looks pretty similar and has nutrition data:

    If you can't find the exact same thing, you can only find something similar and log that. A guesstimate every once in a while is better than nothing.

    Estimate sensibly, log and move on. Life is too short to care about a 300 calorie discrepancy on 1 day.

    Thanks very much! That does look very similar and since it has a weight, I should be able to figure out something similar next time I get the roll and weigh it.
