Hello,
As a learning project I’m gonna build a small mobile app to track calories intake through the day, i’ll need a database with nutritional values to do so.
I found USDA and Open Food Facts db dumps but it’s more about products or meal informations and not generic food like plain chicken or white rice.
In my case I want to track calories of unprocessed food, as the vast majority of processed food already have nutritional facts printed on.
I plan to do this in MongoDb or Postgres, I can even take a CSV file if it has the type of data i’m looking for.
