White Bread Calories

A standard serving of Sara Lee Classic White Bread, which consists of two slices (50g), contains approximately 140 calories. When trying to manage weight, understanding your daily food intake is key. Using a calorie calculator can help determine your needs, whether you're aiming for a calorie deficit to lose weight or maintaining your current weight. These 140 calories from bread can be a simple base for a sandwich, making it a versatile part of many meals. This portion is a moderate energy source, comparable to the calories in a large banana.

Nutritional Profile

For those 140 calories, you get 26 grams of total carbohydrates, which provide your body with energy. The bread also offers 5 grams of protein. It is very low in fat, with only 1.5 grams per serving and no saturated or trans fat. It contains less than one gram of dietary fiber. Like many commercially produced white breads, it is enriched with essential vitamins and minerals that are partially removed during the refining process of the wheat. This enrichment adds back nutrients such as iron, thiamin, niacin, and folate, making it a more balanced choice than unenriched white flour products.

Daily Calorie Needs

Wondering 'how many calories should I eat a day?' The answer varies based on age, sex, and activity level, but a common benchmark is around 2,000 calories. A serving of this bread makes up about 7% of that total. It's a convenient food, but for those seeking low-calorie meals, pairing it with lean protein and plenty of vegetables is a great strategy. For context, the 140 calories in two slices are more than the calories in a medium apple (around 95) but similar to two large egg calories (around 150), serving a different role in a balanced meal.
