Two nutrition databases put the Egg White & Roasted Red Pepper Sous Vide Egg Bites at different calorie counts, and the reason is not a typo. One measures a 130 g serving; the other measures “2 pieces (119 g).” That 11 g difference in stated portion weight is why the Starbucks egg white bites nutrition you see floating around reads as either 170 calories or 150 calories depending on which page you landed on. This desk aggregates the published figures, attaches each to its portion weight, and leaves you to match the one that fits your order. The official first-party label sits behind a cookie wall and could not be inspected as full page text, so the headline figures below come from third-party databases and are flagged as such.
Data here is structured from manufacturer-facing menu listings and established public food databases. Where those sources disagree, both numbers stay on the page.
The standalone answer: what one order actually logs
For the Starbucks egg white bites nutrition on a 130 g serving, the figure most often cited is 170 calories, with 13 g protein, 13 g carbs including 2 g sugar, 7 g fat, 5 g saturated fat, and 500 mg sodium. A second database measures a smaller 119 g portion and lists 150 calories, 11 g protein, 10 g carbs with 3 g sugar, 7 g fat, and 430 mg sodium. Both describe the same product; they weigh different amounts of it. Protein sits between 11 g and 13 g. Cholesterol is low at 25 mg. Fat is the largest macro by calorie share, not a trace.
Why one site says 150 calories and another says 170
The gap traces cleanly to portion basis. Nutrola reports the item on a 130 g serving and lists 170 calories, corroborated across multiple readings of its page. Eat This Much reports “2 pieces (119 g)” and lists 150 calories. Neither is wrong; they describe different weights of the same food.
Because the stated portion weights differ, the two calorie counts are not directly comparable. A reader who wants a single clean number has to first decide which portion matches what lands in the paper sleeve – and the confirmation that an order is exactly two bites could not be verified from an inspectable official label.
The same split runs through sodium. The 130 g figure is 500 mg; the 119 g figure is 430 mg. Pick the calorie number and the sodium number from the same source and portion, never one from each. Mixing them produces a phantom item that no database actually lists.
Starbucks egg white bites nutrition, macro by macro
On the 130 g basis, the split is 13 g protein, 13 g carbs (2 g sugar), and 7 g fat – roughly 9% of a 2,000 calorie day. According to Nutrola, that serving also carries 500 mg sodium and 5 g saturated fat.
On the 119 g basis, Eat This Much lists 7g fat, 5g saturated fat, 25mg cholesterol, 430mg sodium, 10g carbs, 3g sugar, and 11g protein. Its own breakdown puts the calorie split near 27% carbs, 43% fat, 30% protein, and flags the item as a good source of protein at 20% DV.
Note the fat. Whichever portion you take, fat is the largest single macro by calorie share – about 43% on the smaller portion. The “egg white means basically fat-free” read does not hold: 7 g fat with 5 g of it saturated is most of the calorie load here, not a rounding artifact.
Protein is the number sources fight over. Nutrola says 13 g; Eat This Much says 11 g; the fragmentary official snippet that was observable reads “Protein 12g.” Three sources, three values, none confirmed from a full official label. If you count protein tightly, treat it as 11 g to 13 g and don’t bank on the top end.
Sodium: 430 – 500 mg on an item that reads as light
The egg white bites are marketed as the lighter breakfast pick, so the sodium is worth stating plainly. Against the standard daily reference, 500 mg on the 130 g serving and 430 mg on the 119 g serving both land in the same neighborhood. Either way, a single order books a meaningful share of the day’s sodium before anything else on the tray.
That is not a warning, just a number people skip when a food is filed under “healthy.” A drink ordered alongside can carry its own load – this desk breaks down the wider menu in the Starbucks Nutrition Information: The 130-Calorie Truth guide, and the same read-the-panel approach applies to a can of energy drink in the Monster Nutrition Label breakdown. Sodium is the one macro on the egg bites that a “light” label tends to hide.
Egg white vs Bacon & Gruyère: what you give up to drop the fat
Swapping to the egg white version is usually framed as strictly better. The paired figures say it’s a trade, not an upgrade. Using same-portion 130 g data, the Bacon & Gruyère Egg Bites carry 300 calories with 20g fat, 12g saturated fat, 215mg cholesterol, 680mg sodium, 9g carbs, 2g sugar, and 19g protein.
Against the egg white 130 g line – 170 calories, 7 g fat, 5 g saturated, 25 mg cholesterol, 13 g protein – the egg white version cuts fat by 13 g, saturated fat by 7 g, and cholesterol steeply. Eat This Much lists the bacon version at 215mg cholesterol (72% DV) versus 25mg (8% DV) for the egg white version, drawing on its Bacon & Gruyère listing.
Here is the cost: protein falls too, from 19 g to 13 g, about 6 g gone. The bacon bites are a good source of protein at 34% DV, with a calorie split near 12% carbs, 62% fat, 26% protein. If your reason for the egg bites is protein per breakfast, the egg white swap quietly hands back a chunk of it. If your reason is cholesterol or saturated fat, the swap earns its keep. Which version wins depends entirely on which of those two you’re managing.
Protein density: which bite works harder per calorie
Comparing raw protein grams flatters the bacon version, which simply carries more calories. The fairer read is protein per 100 calories, and this is a linkable frame the databases don’t print for you.
- Egg white (130 g, Nutrola): 13 g protein against 170 calories – about 7.6 g protein per 100 calories.
- Bacon & Gruyère (130 g, Eat This Much): 19 g protein against 300 calories – about 6.3 g protein per 100 calories.
Held to the same 130 g portion from paired sources, the egg white version returns more protein per calorie. So the pick splits by goal: for lean protein per calorie, egg white leads; for the most absolute protein in one order regardless of calories, bacon leads. Note this uses the 130 g egg-white figure, not the 119 g “2 pieces” line – mixing portion weights would break the ratio.
Cholesterol, calcium and potassium on the 119 g listing
The micronutrient detail lives on the Eat This Much 119 g listing. It records 137mg calcium (14% DV) and 176mg potassium (4% DV), plus the 25mg cholesterol already noted (8% DV). Fiber is a rounding coin-flip: Eat This Much shows 0g while the Nutrola table shows 1g on the same nutrient – a minor disagreement either way, not a figure to plan around.
The calcium is the quiet upside: 14% DV from cheese and egg in a 150-calorie portion is a real return. Potassium at 4% DV is modest. None of these appear on the observable official snippet, so they rest on a single third-party database and should be read as directional.
A clean nutrition table (with the portion attached)
Every figure below is keyed to its portion weight and its source. Do not read across a row and mix – the two egg-white columns describe different weights of the same food.

Where the official label leaves a gap
The first-party Starbucks page for product 2122117 renders behind a cookie wall and could not be read as full page text. Only a fragment was observable: “Calories170 Sugar3g Fat8g Protein 12g,” with an allergen note reading “Egg, Milk.” That fat figure of 8 g differs from the 7 g the third-party databases report, and the full ingredient and allergen text could not be confirmed.
Allergen warning
So the honest position: the widely cited 170-calorie headline lines up with the official snippet, but the finer macros – fat at 7 g or 8 g, protein at 11 g, 12 g or 13 g – are not settled by an inspectable first-party label. Databases can lag unannounced recipe changes. For anyone managing a strict allergen restriction, the on-package label at the store is the only text to trust, not any aggregate. For how this same portion-and-panel discipline plays out on other packaged items, the Quaker Oats Nutrition Facts read walks the half-cup basis line by line.
Same food, one scale: both listings normalized to 100 g
The whole 150-vs-170 argument runs on portion weight (130 g vs 119 g), never on the food itself. Rebase each database to a flat 100 g and the two “non-comparable” listings almost collapse onto each other, which is the cleanest proof that both are weighing the identical product. Every input below is taken verbatim from the figures already on this page; only the division is new.
- Calories per 100 g: Nutrola’s 170 cal on 130 g works out to about 131 cal/100 g (170 ÷ 130 × 100), while Eat This Much’s 150 cal on 119 g is about 126 cal/100 g (150 ÷ 119 × 100). Strip the portion difference and the two sources sit just 5 cal/100 g apart, not the 20-calorie chasm the headline numbers suggest.
- Sodium per 100 g: the 500 mg / 130 g figure becomes about 385 mg/100 g (500 ÷ 130 × 100); the 430 mg / 119 g figure becomes about 361 mg/100 g (430 ÷ 119 × 100). Again the databases land within roughly 24 mg of each other once weight is held constant.
Practical read: the databases barely disagree about the food; they disagree about how much of it a “serving” is. If you know your order’s actual weight, multiply these per-100 g figures by it rather than trusting either raw serving line. As always on this desk, these rest on third-party databases, not an inspectable first-party Starbucks label.
Frequently Asked Questions: matching the number to your order across the wider menu
How many bites come in one order?
The databases point to a two-piece order – Eat This Much labels its 119 g figure “2 pieces.” But confirmation that a standard order is exactly two bites could not be verified from an inspectable official source. Treat two as the working assumption, and if you buy a multi-count or bulk grocery version, re-check the panel, since the per-serving weight can shift.
Are these egg bites actually low in fat?
Not especially. At 7 g fat with 5 g saturated, fat supplies the biggest slice of calories – around 43% on the 119 g breakdown. Compared to the 20 g in the Bacon & Gruyère version they’re leaner, but “egg white” doesn’t mean fat-free. If saturated fat is your target metric, log the 5 g rather than assuming a trace.
Which version is better for a high-protein breakfast?
Depends on the yardstick. Per calorie, the egg white bites deliver roughly 7.6 g protein per 100 calories versus about 6.3 g for the bacon version. For sheer grams in one sitting, the bacon bites hand you 19 g against 13 g. Lean dieters lean egg white; anyone chasing maximum protein per order picks bacon and absorbs the extra fat.
Why does the sugar differ between sources?
The 130 g listing shows 2 g sugar; the 119 g listing shows 3 g, and the official snippet reads 3 g. It’s a small spread driven by the different portion weights and rounding at the source, not a recipe difference. At these amounts the sugar is negligible either way and won’t swing a daily total. Figures are aggregated from third-party nutrition databases and menu listings; the first-party label could not be inspected as full page text, and brands can change recipes without notice. This is a data reference, not dietary advice.
