Why estimates miss: Pad Thai is a multi-ingredient dish. The tamarind-sugar sauce, fish sauce, oil, and crushed peanuts make Pad Thai far denser than the 'rice noodles with shrimp' most trackers assume. Generic calorie apps undercount the hidden oil, sauce and portion — CalDesk AI's photo estimate is tuned to catch exactly this.
