So I just looked in the tracker for a everything flagel. Generic one is 400 calories, Einstein Bagel one is 160 calories. I got mine from my local bagel shop.

How many calories in a flagel!?

    What is a flagel?:huh:

    If these are in the database, try weighing yours. It might give you a better idea which database entry is closest to yours.

    A flagel is a flat bagel. However, I'm sure the calories vary quite a lot depending what's on it and such.

    This is from Hampton Bagels found on the fat secret site - it does not have a weight of the serving size so it may not translate to where you got yours from. one other option is to weigh you flagel and then find a bagel in the food logs that uses weight as the unit of measure not just one serving. then you can just do the math to adjust to your "portion" size.

    Did you get it at a bakery or coffee shop or something? I'm guessing yes or you'd just scan the barcode right?

    I eat the Thomas' flat everything bagels. I just scan the upc code with my phone app. Just use the average of a store bought one if the one you got is from a bakery.

    Yes, I got mine from a bagel shop, so there are no nutritional facts listed for them. They are much more like a bagel than a Thomas' thin, so I know it wouldn't be 110 calories.

    Hmmm.....

    My curiosity got the better of me. Apparently a flagel is a bagel that has been smashed flat. So the calories would be similar to that vendors regular bagels. Any toppings/coatings would be slighter higher, as there is more surface area to cover.

    A Flagel is NOT a smashed bagel. It is a flatter bagel because it has LESS dough. When I order a bagel, I have them scoop out ALL the soft bread. It's those extra carbs that you don't need. I'm from NYC where nobody would ever compare a good bagel to a Thomas' thin or any other bagel you buy in a store. Just not the same--taste or texture. If you're on a diet, DON'T eat a bagel. They have 3-400 calories depending upon the size. Add 1-200 calories for the butter (also depends upon how much butter they use).
