Food. Quantities. Context.

Know what a food record says.

VISINVOKE hosts USDA FoodData Central public-domain data. Records distinguish their data type and version, without adverts or shop links.

What you can explore

Reported nutrients, clear quantities and useful context.

Food information that keeps its basis visible.

Find the food you mean

A full nutrient panel

Read energy in kcal and kJ alongside protein, fat, carbohydrate, fibre, sugars, vitamins and minerals.

Choose a comparison basis

Side-by-side food comparisons

Bring food records together to compare their reported nutrient values on a like-for-like basis.

Rank a chosen nutrient

Find high or low values for a selected nutrient within a data type, rather than mixing unlike record types.

Understand the record type

Distinguish Foundation, standard reference, survey and branded label data. Measurement and label rounding can differ.

Missing means not reported

Keep gaps visible. An unreported nutrient is not presented as an invented zero.

Trace the source

See the source, data type and USDA FoodData Central data version behind a record.

Branded labels as stated

Read label values as provided. Brand names identify products and do not imply endorsement.

From energy to vitamins and minerals.

The illustration groups a meal, protein foods and produce around stylised nutrient symbols. It shows the breadth of the subject, without assigning measured values to the pictured foods.

Keep the food, quantity and record type together.

Find the right entry

Search by name, brand or barcode number. Check that the record describes the food and preparation you intend.

Use a consistent quantity

Choose per 100 g or a published serving, then compare food records side by side on the same basis.

Check the evidence behind it

Read the source, data type and USDA FoodData Central data version. For a purchased product, check its current label.

Serving quantities and sources

Keep the amount and the evidence connected.

The illustration traces an apple through a measuring cup and scales to a source archive. It brings quantities, preparation and provenance into one visual chain.

View values per 100 g or for a published serving. Keep the source and data version visible so that the numbers retain their context.

The detail behind a value

Read records with their limits in view.

Transparent reference information helps you understand what is reported.

Different data types

Foundation, standard reference, survey and branded label records reflect different sources and methods. Compare within a data type when ranking a nutrient.

No invented zeroes

An unreported nutrient is a gap in the record. Food & Nutrition keeps it marked as not reported rather than treating the gap as zero.

Source credit and label context

Data comes from USDA FoodData Central, hosted by VISINVOKE as a public-domain reference. Branded values are shown as stated; brand names identify products without endorsement.
