White Bread calories & macros
266 calories per 100 g · 67 calories per 1 slice (25 g). White Bread (commercially prepared).
A standard slice of white bread is about 67 calories, which makes a plain sandwich around 134 before anything goes in it. Refining removes the bran and germ, leaving less fiber and fewer micronutrients than whole wheat, though most commercial white bread is enriched with B vitamins and iron. It is a perfectly workable food to build a day around — it simply keeps you full for less time than the whole-grain version.

Frequently asked
How many calories in two slices of white bread?
About 134 calories for two standard 25 g slices. Thick-cut or artisan slices can push that to 200 or more.
Does bread make you gain weight?
No single food does. Bread is calorie-dense per gram and easy to eat quickly, which makes overshooting simple, but two slices at 134 calories fit into most daily targets without difficulty.
