Whole-wheat sandwich bread — fiber and protein-bearing version.

More protein and fiber than white. ~70 kcal/slice depending on brand. Read labels — many 'wheat' breads are mostly white.

Best for

  • training days and glycogen refill — 41g carbs / 100g
  • budget meals where cheap energy density matters

Watch out

  • portion creep — cooked volume looks bigger than the grams you meant
  • sauces and oils that turn a carb staple into a hidden calorie sink
  • brand/restaurant recipes change — re-check if the number feels off

How to log it

Weigh cooked whole-wheat bread if that is the state in the DB serving. 1 slice (~28g) is the practical unit in the app.

Where it fits the day

Best next to a protein source. Alone it is fuel, not a complete macro plan.

Cooked, grilled, fried & breaded

Plain whole-wheat bread is the baseline above. Oil, frying, and restaurant prep usually raise the estimate — typical kcal per 100g:

These are typical ranges, not lab measurements. Restaurant recipes, oils, and sauces vary — treat them as logging estimates and edit if your plate looks heavier.
