How many calories are there in whole coffee beans? And is it ok to eat them?
I’m talking about all natural, not the chocolate covered ones.
Coffee is almost Zero Calorie
According to the USDA nutrient database – an 8 ounce cup of coffee (brewed from grounds) has just 2 (yes two) Calories. The calories come from a tiny amount of protein and some mono-unsaturated oils.
The coffee bean has oils in it (which is why a barista often needs to clean their espresso machine to prevent an oily build up). Sometimes a really bad coffee can be due to the oils in it becoming rancid (this often occurs from dark roasts, which cause a subsequent release of oils – if the beans are stored for a long time the oils may go slightly rancid).
So: coffee beans + water = virtually calorie-free.
Yes, it is ok to eat coffee beans but it can’t give you as much joy as the blend you drink from the cup.
