What causes the difference

In these two examples, the changes are: type of bread — whole wheat → white bread, butter and oil — added: butter, sweet topping — added: jam.

Base: Whole wheat → white breadButter & oil: + ButterSweet: + Jam
  • The spreads create most of the difference: light cream cheese versus butter plus jam roughly doubles the calories added to the bread.
  • Fifteen grams of butter contribute more calories than the slice beneath it.
  • Logging the spreads separately keeps both the butter and jam in the estimate instead of treating the entry as plain toast.
