Nutrition Facts?
I'm about to sell some roasted nut products to some super markets in my area. Is it legal or appropriate to provide my own nutrition facts by using the nutrition facts given by the ingredients I use? I've tried to get a hold of a laboratory, but surprisingly, none seem to be interested in taking the job. Please provide whatever advice you can. Thanks in advance.
Yes, it is both legal and appropriate for you to calculate the nutrition facts of your product based on the nutrition facts of the ingredients in your product (this is what is known as calculated data).
The FDA does not prescribe *how* you obtain the nutrition information of your product. The FDA only legally requires that your nutrition information be *acurate*. They do not require you to send your product to a lab for analysis. Calculated data is just fine as long as it's accurate!
Also keep in mind that if you are labeling you own product, you will need to follow the FDA-prescribed format of the Nutrition Facts table. The Nutrition Facts table is HIGHLY prescribed. There are regulations on everything - including the nutrients you need to display, font sizes, bolding, and nutrient rounding.
I suggest you visit FDA's website and look up the Code of Federal Regulations relating to nutrition labeling. Do your homework! Labeling inaccuracies can result in product recall and/or fines, so it is important that you know what you are doing.
