% Daily Value is how much 100 g contributes to the FDA Daily Values for adults and children 4 years and older, the figures on US nutrition labels; a dash means there is no Daily Value for that nutrient. "Not reported" means USDA has no measurement for this food, not that it contains none.

How Fried Egg fits common diet targets

medium
  • Net carbs are total carbohydrate minus fiber: 0.8 g − 0 g = 0.8 g per 100 g. Low-carb plans usually count these.
  • Protein per 100 kcal compares how much protein each food gives for the same calories: Fried Egg gives 6.9 g.
  • Energy density is calories per gram. At 1.96 kcal/g, Fried Egg is medium on the CDC's scale (very low below 0.6, low to 1.5, medium to 4, high above 4); lower-density foods give a larger portion for the same calories.

Logging Fried Egg: what to know

A fried egg adds fat from the pan, and the row reads 14.8 g per 100 g against 9.5 g for the raw egg. One large fried egg is 46 g and 90 kcal. Weigh it without the oil or butter pooled in the pan, and the figures hold.
