Good to know

Before you use it

  • Every amount is per 100 grams. Multiply by ServingGrams / 100 for one serving.
  • A blank means the USDA did not measure that nutrient for the food. It does not mean the food has none.
  • In every format, dates are written as yyyy-MM-dd, and yes/no values as true or false. An empty value means nothing was recorded.
