Under the food help why is it showing such a range for boiled eggs? It ranges from 70 calories to over 200? A boiled egg is a boiled egg right?

    different types/sizes of eggs can be different calories... your best bet is to look on the carton for what the calories are and find the most similar one!

    A hard boiled egg (or any large egg for that matter) has 70 calories. Other users can enter information and perhaps you're looking at a recipe or something they cooked and added butter, or some other ingredients. Anything without an asterisk next to it should be from the original database or a food you entered yourself.
