Figures are USDA FoodData Central values scaled from 100 g to the amount shown. “No data” means USDA publishes no value for this food — not that it contains none. Added sugars and glycemic index are not shown: USDA’s whole-food datasets do not publish them. Your own carbohydrate target is set with your care team.
