Why estimates miss: Pulled Pork is a multi-ingredient dish. Slow-cooked shoulder is fatty to begin with, and the BBQ sauce mixed through adds hidden sugar that most people never count. Generic calorie apps undercount the hidden oil, sauce and portion — CalDesk AI's photo estimate is tuned to catch exactly this.
