Here's a TW nutrient database based on 8787 values from the USDA. It includes most of the minerals and vitamins, but omits "nutrients" like caffeine, starch, and alcohol. You can drag and drop foods into the calorie tracker app. Some of the entries are a bit arcane, but if you've been hankering for acorn stew or Alaskan Ice cream (fish with shortening) then here's the place to start. Keep in mind the following considerations:
*Disclaimer:* The user must assume all responsibility for the use and accuracy of this data and it's transformations. No guarantee is made in regard to this data nor to the Calorie/Fiber mini-app. *Data taken from:* - U.S. Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service. 20xx. USDA National Nutrient Database for Standard Reference, Release . Nutrient Data Laboratory Home Page, http://www.ars.usda.gov/nutrientdata - U.S. Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service. 20xx. USDA Branded Food Products Database . Nutrient Data Laboratory Home Page, http://ndb.nal.usda.gov *Caveats*: Each food item entry was pulled from the abbreviated nutrients file available at the USDA. The original quantities were stated in terms of 100 grams of food, but have been divided by 100 to give values per gram. Each food item is meant to use grams as the input quantity, but the output units for each sub nutrient (vitamins, calories, etc.) varies by nutrient and follows the norms for that nutrient. That is, calories are in Kcal, fiber is in grams, potassium in mg, and folates in micrograms. Before using a food item, be sure that it has been given a reasonable field-name value. The values were created based on the original titles. With 8700 entries there may be duplicates or other anomalies. The field-name values must conform to the naming conventions of TiddlyWiki fields, or they will not work. This is just data. It doesn't include the app (see the other post in this thread). Having 8700 entries results in a very slow TW page, and you are unlikely to need all the foods unless you're having a really big party or, perhaps, a royal wedding. There could be errors. It is up the user to assume all responsibility for the accuracy and quality of the results (e.g. don't blame me for that extra 10 pounds you put on).
