Figures are UK CoFID (McCance and Widdowson) values scaled from 100 g to the amount shown. “No data” means UK CoFID publishes no value for this food — not that it contains none. Added sugars and glycemic index are not shown: the food composition datasets we use do not publish them. Carbohydrate is available carbohydrate (fibre not included), as CoFID publishes it; fibre is non-starch polysaccharide (NSP, Englyst method), which reads lower than the AOAC method US labels use.
