Interesting fact: Eggplants can feel surprisingly light for their size because their flesh is spongy and full of tiny air spaces.
The answer: Typically, an eggplant weighs about 300 to 500 grams (11 to 18 ounces). The exact weight depends on size, variety, preparation, brand, and how much edible or non-edible material is included.
Vegetables are awkward to weigh by eye because water content, trimming, and variety change the final number. A practical weight range helps with cooking, shopping, meal prep, and comparing nutrition portions without needing a scale every time.
