I had Alexis bransd crinkle cut sweet potato fries tonight. The package read 160 calories 3 ounces about 30 pieces. Great. After eating I log it in MFP calories 140 for 3 ounces 12 pieces? HUH? Which is correct?

    so I went by the package now concerned I overate a bunch of calories.
  • Go by the information on the package. It could be that someone else has tried to enter the information into the MFP database, but entered it incorrectly.

    The package is always more accurate than any random information you'll find elsewhere.
