Food Info Nutrition Labels adds a clean, accurate nutrition label to your recipe posts, calculated from your own country’s official food database.
Every country’s food scientists log regional variations in food, so a UK, Australian or French recipe ends up with numbers that reflect a different nutritional outcome. This plugin picks your national database automatically:
- United Kingdom: CoFID (McCance & Widdowson’s)
- United States: USDA FoodData Central
- Australia: AUSNUT
- France: Ciqual
- Canada: CNF
- Finland: Fineli
…and falls back across all six so nothing goes unmatched.
How it works. 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.
Free. No account, no API key, no per-recipe cost.

External services
This plugin connects to the Food Info API at food-info.org to turn your ingredient list into a nutrition label.
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.
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.
Why it is needed: to match your ingredients against the national food databases and return the calculated label.
