The Complete Book of Food Counts by Olive
A great book for all the weight watchers in society. An informative, comprehensive, “food dictonary” with the needed data to make healthier choices and to know what you are consuming in the way of sodium, fiber, fat, protein, & carbs. Best utilized before eating, it helps with making a food selection that will work for you.

Complete isn’t exactly accurate by C. Barnes
This book is as good as but no better than the other 3 food count books I own by various authors. I bought this book because it said it was complete but obviously I do not understand what the author means by complete. I wanted to know potassium counts in various foods and while this book is adequate for calories, carbohydrates, protein, cholesterol, sodium, fat and fiber, there is absolutely no data for potassium. Back to the food labels…

lists protein by CAB, mom of 6
My daughter is on a low protein diet due to a genetic disease. This book is quite helpful in that its the one source I need, whether eating out or cooking at home. Yes its large for a paperback. But every other book I’ve bought that is smaller, either doesn’t list protein or doesn’t list eating out or costs an arm and a leg or is even larger.

If I had my computer on all the time, then there are lots of sites I can go to that list protein by the amino acid (which is what I really need).

Oh, and you get used to the arrangement of the book. Its actually easier than a few others that I have..
