This plugin picks your national database automatically:<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>United Kingdom<\/strong>: CoFID (McCance &amp; Widdowson's)<\/li>\n<li><strong>United States<\/strong>: USDA FoodData Central<\/li>\n<li><strong>Australia<\/strong>: AUSNUT<\/li>\n<li><strong>France<\/strong>: Ciqual<\/li>\n<li><strong>Canada<\/strong>: CNF<\/li>\n<li><strong>Finland<\/strong>: Fineli<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>\u2026and falls back across all six so nothing goes unmatched.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>How it works.<\/strong> Add the \"Food Info Nutrition Labels\" block to a recipe, paste your ingredient list, choose servings and your country, and click Calculate. You get a full label, per serving and per 100 g, that you can publish as-is. The nutrition is worked out once, when you click Calculate, and saved into the post, so your page loads stay fast and never depend on an outside service.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Free.<\/strong> No account, no API key, no per-recipe cost.<\/p>\n\n<p>Powered by the same engine behind <a href=\"https:\/\/food-info.org\/recipe-nutrition-calculator\">Food Info<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<h3>External services<\/h3>\n\n<p>This plugin connects to the Food Info API at food-info.org to turn your ingredient list into a nutrition label.<\/p>\n\n<p>When it runs: only in the editor, at the moment you click \"Calculate nutrition\" on the block. The label is then saved into your post, so nothing is sent when a visitor views your published page.<\/p>\n\n<p>What is sent: the ingredient text you type, the number of servings, and the country you select. No account, API key, or personal data is sent or required.<\/p>\n\n<p>Why it is needed: to match your ingredients against the national food databases and return the calculated label.<\/p>\n\n<p>This service is provided by Food Info.
