About a Yorkshire pudding

A Yorkshire pudding is egg, flour and milk batter puffed in hot fat. It is mostly air, so it weighs little: UK CoFID gives about 211 per 100 g, so a large 60 g pub Yorkie is about 130 and a small 30 g homemade one about 60. One carvery chain lists its Yorkie with gravy at 214.

In PlateDiary

A rough number for the dishes you save — only if you want one.

Off unless you turn them on

Calories in PlateDiary are off unless you turn them on. Switch them on and, when PlateDiary AI reads your photo of the table, each dish gets one rough “~” number. Accept it or change it; a number you correct is remembered for that dish. With Calories off, the app looks exactly as it did before.

A read sends small pictures of the cut-out dishes, with the place's name as a hint — never the table photo, faces or your location. Calorie numbers never go to analytics, and nothing is written to a health app. PlateDiary AI starts with free tries; here is how it works.
