Uno Whole Wheat Bread - How Many Calories?

Weighing a slice of UNO Firindan whole wheat bread

A slice count is only useful when you know how much each slice weighs. This entry describes the 450 g Firindan whole wheat loaf. Other UNO sandwich, toast and pan breads may have different recipes and nutrition panels.

How many calories are in one slice?

The supplier gives 223 kcal per 100 g. The manufacturer divides a pack into nine portions: one ninth of 450 g is 50 g, providing 112 kcal. That is a portion definition, not a promise that each slice weighs 50 g. If your weighed slice is 25 g, it contains 56 kcal; two such slices weigh 50 g. Thicker cuts change the calculation.

The 50 g portion of UNO Firindan rye bread is also one ninth of its pack, but uses the separate wheat-and-rye product label.

Fibre, protein and sugar per portion

A 50 g portion supplies 3.95 g of fibre, 5.9 g of protein and 19.6 g of carbohydrate. Its declared sugar content is 0.3 g, already included in the carbohydrate figure, and its salt content is 0.45 g. Whole wheat bread still provides energy; fibre adds another useful detail when comparing loaves. If you are adding more fibre, the guide to increasing portions gradually can help you adjust without changing every meal at once.

Can whole wheat bread fit into a diet?

It can be the carbohydrate part of a meal. Eggs, cheese or beans alongside vegetables offer more variety than bread alone. The amount of bread that suits you depends on the rest of your meals and your needs, so a fixed allowance of two slices is not universal. Whole wheat on the label also does not establish a particular glycaemic index or an exact number of hours of fullness.

What does the whole wheat label describe?

The manufacturer lists whole wheat flour as the flour ingredient, alongside water, cracked wheat, yeast, wheat sourdough and salt. This does not mean the entire loaf's weight is flour. The bread contains gluten and carries a sesame trace warning, so it is unsuitable for coeliac disease. A different brand's ingredients or another UNO sourdough, chia or Anadolu loaf cannot substitute for this label. The average 29-gram slice of UNO Denge chia bread uses its own product label. The 50 g calculation for UNO sourdough whole wheat bread uses its separate label.
