Energy comes from USDA nutrient 1008. Salt is calculated as sodium × 2.5, with unit conversion to grams. It is not a separately measured salt value.

Preparation

Ice cream is cream, milk, sugar and air. The USDA row for plain vanilla is 207 kcal per 100 g; premium brands whip in less air and more cream and can pass 250, while "light" versions use more air and milk and run 130–150. Melting changes nothing. Toppings and cones are separate foods.

Logging this food

The listed serving is half a cup, 66 g, 137 kcal — a small scoop. A restaurant scoop is 80–100 g; two scoops in a cone are around 300 kcal before sauce. A pint tub is roughly 470 g and 970 kcal. Weigh a scoop once; it is the portion people underestimate by the most.

Swaps and alternatives

Frozen yogurt and "light" ice cream save a third to a half per gram; sorbet is about 130 kcal per 100 g with no fat; a frozen banana blended is about 90. The honest swap is a smaller scoop of the real thing — 60 g of what you like beats 150 g of what you tolerate.
