Meal calorie calculator

Pick foods and set how much of each you’re having. We add it all up from sourced per-100g values.

Our reference food list isn’t available right now. Please try again shortly — or enter values by hand in the portion calculator.

Add the foods on your plate to see the total.

How this works

Each food’s values are per 100 g (or 100 ml) from the source shown next to it, such as USDA FoodData Central.

We scale each food to your portion and add them together. Cooking methods change values, so pick the cooked or raw version that matches what you’re weighing.

Weighing food gives the best accuracy. If you’re estimating, it’s fine — consistency matters more than precision.

This tool gives general information, not medical advice. If you have a health condition, are pregnant, or are worried about your eating or weight, please speak to your GP or a registered dietitian.

Questions people ask

Should I weigh food raw or cooked?

Either is fine, as long as you use the matching raw or cooked values. Cooked rice and pasta, for example, contain much more water than dry.

Why don’t you list my brand?

This free tool uses a reference list of common foods. The app adds millions of branded products through barcode scanning.
