I don't think many people need to track their daily intake of Vitamin C. You'll be happy to learn that broccoli has no caffeine. Which Vits/mineral are worth it? It would obviously take a bit of work. -- Mark |

Caveats:
Each food item entry was pulled from the abbreviated nutrients file available at the USDA. The original quantities were stated in terms of 100 grams of food, but have been divided by 100 to give values per gram.
Each food item is meant to use grams as the input quantity, but the output units for each sub nutrient (vitamins, calories, etc.) varies by nutrient and follows the norms for that nutrient. That is, calories are in Kcal, fiber is in grams, potassium in mg, and folates in micrograms.
Before using a food item, be sure that it has been given a reasonable field-name value. The values were created based on the original titles. With 8700 entries there may be duplicates or other anomalies. The field-name values must conform to the naming conventions of TiddlyWiki fields, or they will not work.
Yes, I'll need to do that. But since there only seems to be 3 people interested in this topic, I figured I could continue working on improvements. I have a long/short form feature to make the display more manageable and I want to have it configurable so you can pick and track say 5 given nutrients.
Tracking I mainly do on paper because its much easier to have that next to the bread board.
The resource you enabled is really handy being in a TW because I can cut and select and edit to my interests. Having a humongous database of food values to draw on in a TW format is brilliant. I use data for planning & defining aims.
BTW, there are only 3 people here, and 30 of them are PMario.
In terms that a 3-year-old might understand, how do I download, assemble and use the Carbo Commander and its accompanying data, in a local file on my computer?
I can't figure out what to drag/drop to an empty TW to recreate what you have at TiddlySpot.
Also, while I have your ear, Mark, would I be correct in assuming that this 'application' would afford me the opportunity to add in my own items (thinking brand-name foods that I purchase), and enter in the nutritional information for each, and be able to sort, track, etc. on that data?
Really I'm most interested in 1) Carbohydrates, 2) Sodium, 3) Fat and 4) Protein in each item.
Don't get old, folks...
