- <font face="Times New Roman">Recipe Manager is a recipe and food database
- management system where you can organize and browse your database with
- ease. Recipe Manager does simplify the adding and editing recipes,
- and you also can evaluate their nutritional contents based on the
- ingredients' nutritional values taken from the USDA (United State
- Department of Agriculture). The whole USDA Release 15 database is included
- with the software which contains more the 6000 food items and over 100
- nutrients (</font><span lang="EN-AU" style="font-family: Times New Roman">micronutrients,
- minerals and vitamins).</span></p>
- <p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman" lang="en-au">The original
- USDA database can be found here :
- <a href="http://www.nal.usda.gov/fnic/foodcomp/Data/">
- http://www.nal.usda.gov/fnic/foodcomp/Data/</a></span></p>
- <p>If you have query about any recipe, check its source (under the
- recipe's source tab) and contact that source, as this database grow (when people
- start sharing them ) it will be very difficult for us to maintain these
- queries, plus the source would have better knowledge of the submitted
- recipes.</p>
