Where This Data Comes From

Straight from the source.

These numbers are USDA FoodData Central record 2706133 (Survey (FNDDS)), 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.
