Where This Data Comes From

Straight from the source.

These numbers are USDA FoodData Central record 2512378 (Foundation), last refreshed into our copy on Mar 22, 2026. They are reported per 100 g so every record here compares on the same footing, with no grades, no composite scores, and no editorial math on top.

Where the source data does not include a field, the label says "Not available" rather than showing a misleading zero.

Open this record on FoodData Central to check every number against USDA directly.

Some nutrient fields were not measured for this record, so the label shows what exists rather than filling the gaps.
