SERVING SIZE
Calories by portion and serving weight
Words such as “small,” “medium,” “half” and “one piece” are convenient but imprecise. Grams make the estimate reproducible, particularly when natural foods vary in size.

FOOD STATE MATTERS
How preparation changes the nutrition estimate
A reliable calorie entry should describe the food you actually ate—not merely a food with a similar name.
Raw or frozen
Selected combined reference.
Freeze-dried
Use the concentrated product label.
Sweetened paste
Use the exact product label.
Dessert or shake
Log every recipe ingredient.
PRACTICAL CONTEXT
How plain durian can fit different goals
There is no universal “good” or “bad” food. Portion, frequency, the rest of the meal, preferences and individual health needs all matter.
Portion math
At 147 kcal per 100 g, the 50 g example is 73.5 kcal.
Fibre check
The selected record lists 3.8 g fibre per 100 g.
Protein check
The selected record lists 1.47 g protein per 100 g.
Best logging move
Use edible flesh weight and exclude shell and seeds; switch to the label for processed products.
QUALITY & SAFETY
How to choose, store and prepare it
Store
Keep whole or frozen durian according to seller directions.
After opening or cutting
Keep cut or thawed flesh covered and chilled.
Prepare
Use clean hands and utensils when removing edible flesh.
Safety boundary
Discard mouldy or fermented-spoiled flesh; the nutrient record does not establish storage duration.
PHOTO LOGGING
How to log plain durian more accurately
A food photo can suggest the ingredient, but it cannot always reveal exact weight, hidden oil or preparation details. These checks turn an image guess into a better estimate.
- 01
Match the exact reference state: Durian, raw or frozen.
- 02
Use edible grams. Calories are scaled from the selected per-100-g record; named portion weights come from the same local USDA record, while explicitly labelled gram examples are calculated.
- 03
Log oil, sauce, sweetener, salt and recipe ingredients separately.
- 04
Use a separate record when preparation changes the food state.

SOURCES & METHOD
Where these numbers come from
Durian, raw or frozen, per 100 g edible portion. Numeric nutrition claims use the nutrition-reviewed local USDA record. Named portion claims use source-held weights; explicitly labelled gram examples are calculations from the per-100-g record. The nutrient record does not establish storage duration, clinical advice or food-safety limits; use package directions and current authoritative guidance where relevant.
