Pitas: Nutrition Facts and Calories
This category covers a range of flatbreads, often circular and leavened, typically made from wheat flour. Examples include white, wholemeal, and seeded varieties. When choosing pitas, the ingredient list can indicate the type of flour used. Wholemeal or wholewheat flour listed first suggests a higher proportion of whole grain. The nutrition information panel provides details on energy, fat, saturated fat, carbohydrates, sugars, protein, and salt. For pitas, the fibre content is often a key consideration, with wholemeal varieties generally offering more fibre than white ones. The amount of sugars and salt per serving is also shown. Some pitas may be a source of added seeds, which would be listed in the ingredients. As pitas can be a source of carbohydrates, they contribute to energy intake. The NHS Eatwell Guide suggests that starchy carbohydrates should form the basis of most meals. All values are shown per 100 g so products can be compared.
