Pita pocket — Middle Eastern flatbread.

~165 kcal per large pita. Whole-wheat versions add fiber.

Best for

  • training days and glycogen refill — 56g 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

How to log it

Weigh cooked pita bread if that is the state in the DB serving. 1 small (4 in) (~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 pita 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.
