Preface

The information in this work (excluding the nutritional counts of selected menu items from national restaurant chains) is based on the USDA National Nutrient Database for Standard Reference, Release 23, published in computer-readable form by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The original database is very large and unwieldy, and we have extracted just the most useful information for publication here.

For each food we list serving size, and then, per serving:

Total calories (kcal)

Total fat (grams)

Saturated fat (grams)

Cholesterol (milligrams)

Carbohydrates (grams)

Fiber (grams)

Sugar (grams)

Protein (grams)

Sodium (milligrams)

In a very few cases, numbers were missing from the USDA database. They are left blank here.
