Yellow onion — aromatic vegetable, base for most cooked dishes.

Carmelized onions concentrate sugars — ~40 kcal per 1/4 cup carmelized.

Best for

  • volume eating — 40 kcal / 100g keeps plates big
  • fiber and micronutrient gaps on high-protein diets

Watch out

  • drowning produce in creamy dressings you did not log
  • dried fruit or juice versions if you meant fresh

How to log it

Log the form you eat (raw, cooked, juiced). 1 medium (~110g) is the practical unit in the app.

Where it fits the day

Almost always fits as the volume layer. If fat/sauce is the real meal, log that honestly.
