Good nutritional profile
Fresh pear with the skin, core removed, values for the raw fruit.
Pears are eaten raw as a snack or in salads, and also poached or baked. A medium pear of about 180 g has about 100 kcal and 27 g of carbohydrate, 18 g of it sugars, with 5.6 g of fiber, a fifth of the daily value, and some copper; otherwise it has little of any vitamin or mineral. Much of the fiber is in the skin, so these values assume the pear is eaten unpeeled.
