Does anybody know the approximate calories of these rice cakes? Each piece is about 4 cm tall and 10 cm long. Also is it accurate that these really weigh 20 oz?? (Feels like it may be heavier but I don’t own a food scale)

    *I should have searched tteok’s nutritional value first, so I edited a lot.
    according to google, Tteok is about 2.5~3kcal/g [depending on its variation, moisture content and such], so your 567g of tteok will be somewhere around 1600kcal-give or take a hundred.

    Don’t care much about ounce but 12oz is about 355ml, so roughly 28g=1oz so it looks alright.

    it causes blood sugar level spike. that’s real danger even if calories are not so high.

  3. I love tteok, but it is basically a very dense rice hahaha.

    What can u do? A lot of good things are carbs. Pasta, bread, cake~

    It’s a treat and should be treated as such. That package is meant to be shared so go on, get it. Maybe also buy some kinako powder for dipping. Nuke the piece for a short time to resoften if needed and enjoy!

    Sad, I am calorie counting and can only eat a small square or two every once in awhile. Think of it more like chocolate.

    We don’t talk about calories when eating tteok.

    when they invented this, coming up with calories was more important than counting them
