Big part of the problem is no one agrees. And there are a zillion diets. Its probably easier to define the functional purpose of the selection rather than get into a complexity too far (Like the Christopher Robin Wednesday Diet).
For instance, Keto diets do need to know the proportions of protein, carbohydrates & fats in each common food. AND, for managing that diet, some indicator of the vitamins and minerals of each common food (but those don't need to be exact, just indicative). Other diets, like the Carbohydrate Specific Diet (for those with celiac disease) need something quite different. Unless you are pitching for "The All For Every Wo/Man Award" I'd go for your own focus of interest. Heats the urn.
