Planning numbers
The card totals are a kitchen sum, not a lab assay. Strawberries use USDA FoodData Central FDC 167762, 1 cup sliced at 166 grams: about 53 kilocalories, 1.1 grams of protein, 13 grams of carbohydrate, and 3.3 grams of fiber. Blueberries use half of the FDC 171711 cup, 74 grams: about 42 kilocalories, 0.5 grams of protein, 11 grams of carbohydrate, and 1.8 grams of fiber. The banana weight is a labeled assumption of 118 grams, not a USDA size name. At FDC 173944's 89 kilocalories and 22.84 grams of carbohydrate per 100 grams, that banana is about 105 kilocalories and 27 grams of carbohydrate, with about 3.1 grams of fiber from 2.6 grams per 100 grams. Unsweetened almond milk uses the FDC 174832 cup: about 39 kilocalories, 1 gram of protein, 3.4 grams of carbohydrate, and 2.5 grams of fat. Added together, the planning glass is about 239 kilocalories and 54 grams of carbohydrate. Card protein is 3 grams from the berries and the milk. Banana protein is not quoted from that row, so it is not added. Card fat is 3 grams, rounded from the almond milk's 2.5 grams. Weigh the banana you peel. A heavier fruit moves the calories.
