Hi

When shopping i buy the HUGE red delicious apples
I checked the site and for 1 cup raw (w/ skin) it was listed as 60 cals
I usually eat 1/4 apple (one side)...does 60 cals sound about right..so the entire apple would be 240 cals?

Thanks kim

    No-that's too high for 1/4 an apple--you need to choose the measurement for whole apple, then enter in .25--that will give you calories for 1/4 an apple. I eat 1/2 an apple twice a day and it's only 40 calories for a 1/2 an apple.
