MyFoodapedia Serves up Nutritional Stats on Hundreds of Foods [Nutrition]

MyFoodapedia Serves up Nutritional Stats on Hundreds of Foods [Nutrition]: From Lifehacker
"If you need a quick rundown on the nutritional content of a particular food, MyFoodapedia is a comprehensive food database brought to you by the USDA Center for Nutrition.
Put the food you're searching for in the search box and MyFoodapedia will give you a list of potential matches to choose from, it will even show you recipes that commonly include the said ingredient. From there you can choose the amount of the food, any condiments or add-ons you'll be using, and you'll get the stats on the food. It's a simple interface and it doesn't dive into the nuances of caloric intake like simple and complex carbohydrates, but for a quick look up it's snappy and wide reaching.
Have a favorite tool for looking up or tracking nutritional data? Let's hear about it in the comments.
