Garden Vegetable Calories

[hawgrider]

While deciding which vegetables to grow in your ‘survival garden’, among the many things to consider might be the number of calories that you will get in return for the vegetables that you choose to grow.

In an environment in which you are doing your best to procure calories, this will be especially important as you seek to maximize your caloric return for your time and effort.

I have recently updated the following list of garden vegetables and their associated calories:



All quantities have been normalized to 100 grams (3.5 ounces or about 1/4-pound) so as to compare properly. That said, some of the foods are not typically consumed in these amounts – however the results will let you know where they list with regards to calories.

Nutrition is not accounted for in this list.

The food calorie data for each item was determined based on the common method of consuming the item (some are consumed raw whereas others are typically boiled, etc..).

One thing to consider is how the vegetable can be stored for later use. We use both Napa Cabage and Korean Turnips/Radishes that can be pickled with brine and hot peppers. With a little bit of cold, they can be used all winter in soups and stir fry or eaten just as a side dish

For sure a lot of root vegetables.
