A nice fresh sandwich from the supermarket is a delicious treat for yourself. If only we could treat ourselves to this every day… That is actually possible, but it is not very healthy. It probably comes as no surprise that there are a number of calories in an Italian bun or a Kaiser roll, but it turns out to be a lot more than you probably think.
Calories in fresh rolls
Hmm… enjoy your lunch break along the Appie or the Jumbo to get a delicious freshly baked sandwich. That will get us through the day. In any case, it tastes a lot better than your daily sandwich with butter and cheese. We would therefore ideally like to enjoy such a fresh delicacy every day. But if you want to pay more attention to your food, you should put the fresh rolls from the supermarket aside more often. It contains more calories than you think.

More calories unhealthy?
The fact that a white roll contains about 180 calories does not mean that your entire lunch is suddenly unhealthy. It’s more a question of how much you eat, what you eat with it and whether it is filling enough. A product with fewer calories may be ‘healthier’, but if it is not filling, it is still of little use. We put healthy and unhealthy in brackets here, because this is different for every situation. For example, if you are on a calorie deficit, it is good to consider that a tiger bun may be a better option than an Italian bun.
