How Many Calories in Cheeseburger?

1 burger (~150 g) has about 300 calories.

Why estimates miss: Cheeseburger is a multi-ingredient dish. Calories swing with patty size and how much cheese and sauce are added. Generic calorie apps undercount the hidden oil, sauce and portion — CalDesk AI's photo estimate is tuned to catch exactly this.
