Why does 1tbs of raw almonds sliced have way more cals than 1tbs roasted sliced almonds
according to the database? Raw has 190 cals in 1 tbs and roasted has 40!
I am using trader joes brand. I shoulda just looked at the label but was in a rush
this AM.

    I think someone must have entered it incorrectly. There's no way that 1 tablespoon of sliced raw almonds have 190 calories. Almonds are almonds, brand isn't important. Choose the generic entry without an asterisk, those are always correct.
