Food Calorie Calculator

Last updated: 2026-06-25

TL;DR

Food calories are calculated by multiplying the average calories per 100g by the amount you ate (in grams). Calorie intake = (calories per 100g ÷ 100) × amount eaten (g).

The serving unit is converted using each food's standard serving weight, and the values shown are estimates based on averages.

g
Enter the amount in grams.
When servings is selected, it is converted to the standard serving weight.

The values shown are estimates based on average food nutrition. Actual calories can vary by ingredients, recipe, and brand, so check the product nutrition label for exact values.

How to use

  1. Select a food — Choose the food you ate from the list.
  2. Enter the amount — Enter how much you ate in grams (g) or servings.
  3. View the result — Press calculate to see your calorie intake plus carbs, protein, and fat in a table.

Calorie chart for common foods (per 100g and per serving)

The table below shows the average calories per 100g and the typical serving weight and calories for foods people eat often. Even for the same food, values can vary by recipe and ingredients, so use them for reference only.

Calorie conversion uses 4 kcal per gram for carbs and protein and 9 kcal per gram for fat. For managing your diet, it helps to look at the balance of carbs, protein, and fat as well as the total calories. Cooking in an air fryer uses less oil, so you can lower the fat and calories of the same food — see the Air Fryer Time & Temperature Calculator too.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How are food calories calculated?

This calculator multiplies the average calories per 100g of a food by the amount you ate (in grams). For example, if a bowl of cooked white rice is about 130 kcal per 100g, then 210g (one bowl) is about 273 kcal. For the serving unit, each food's standard serving weight is converted to grams.

Are the displayed calories accurate?

The values shown are estimates based on average food nutrition data. Even for the same food, calories can vary widely by ingredients, recipe, and brand, so check the product nutrition label or a national food composition database such as the USDA FoodData Central for exact values.

How many grams is one serving?

It varies by food. This calculator uses common serving standards such as about 210g for a bowl of rice, about 120g for one pack of ramen (noodles plus soup base), and about 90g for one piece of chicken. Actual portions can differ from home to home and restaurant to restaurant.

How are carbs, protein, and fat worked out?

They are calculated by multiplying each food's average carbs, protein, and fat per 100g by the amount you ate. Carbs and protein are converted at 4 kcal per gram and fat at 9 kcal per gram, and rounding may cause a slight difference from the total calories.
