calorie counts

Food energy tallies

Calorie counts are the numerical tallies of calories in food or meals, typically displayed on menus, packaging, or nutrition labels.

The practice became widespread as health-conscious consumers sought to monitor energy intake: I always check the calorie counts before ordering.

Calorie counts may also refer to the act of tracking daily consumption: She's been doing calorie counts for months.
