What is a food calorie chart?

A food calorie chart holds nutritional information about a specific food, including: the serving size, calories, fat grams per serving, and sometimes carbohydrates per serving. The information will vary depending on the chart.

Food calorie charts can hold as much or as little information as needed. The purpose of the chart is to provide information to consumers to help them make informed decisions about their food or drink choices. These charts can provide helpful information to those who are watching what they eat or paying attention to caloric intake. These charts are based on generalizations, so the consumer's individual nutritional needs should be taken into account.
