French Fry Calories

A standard serving of Ore-Ida Golden Crinkles, which is about 12 pieces or 84 grams, contains 120 calories when prepared by baking. The preparation method significantly impacts the final calorie count. Frying these potatoes in oil will increase the calories and fat content considerably. If you're tracking your food intake, using a calorie counter can help you accurately log these fries. For individuals managing a calorie deficit to lose weight, opting for the baked version is a more suitable choice. Understanding how preparation affects nutrition is key to making informed dietary decisions.

Nutritional Profile

The primary component of these french fries is carbohydrates, with 19 grams per serving, mainly from the potatoes themselves. This includes 2 grams of dietary fiber. The total fat content is 4.5 grams, with a minimal 0.5 grams of saturated fat and no trans fat per serving. These fries are not a significant source of protein, providing just 2 grams. The ingredient list is relatively simple, consisting of potatoes, vegetable oil, salt, and preservatives to maintain color and freshness. The golden, crinkly texture is a hallmark of the product, achieved through its specific cut and processing.

One of the most notable aspects of the nutritional profile is the sodium content. At 290 mg per serving, it accounts for 13% of the recommended daily value. This is added for flavor and is an important factor for those monitoring their sodium intake. On the positive side, potatoes are a natural source of potassium, an essential mineral, and these fries provide a good amount. The sugar content is less than one gram, with no added sugars, making them a savory rather than sweet snack option.
