Delve Into Nutrition Data

Usdaguidetonutritionlabelsga1 OK, so I'm a sucker for visual aids---but if you want to know instantly the nutritional story within a Krispy Kreme glazed cruller, or a raw carrot, or a cup of  acerola juice, go to Nutrition Data and find out.

The search window works fast and well--I have n0t yet signed up for anything--and reveals pretty graphics re a food's Caloric Ratio Pyramid,  Nutrient Balance Indicator, and more. ( Don't ask me to explain any of these!)

The site apparently does explain all. Even though I am one of those who likes to eat and enjoy, rather than hand-wring over carbs, fats and proteins, I think this site is a nifty foodie tool.

( Nutrition Data info much more visually dazzling than well-intentioned label at left.)

Some of the things I eat I think I'd rather not know what's in it.

You mean like the glazed lemon blueberry scone I had this morning? Or worse....?

Good site! I'll stay reading! Keep improving!
