Tells you the size in a common household measure (units, fractions, cups, etc.), as well as in volume and/or in weight (in mL or grams) of a single serving.

Shows the number of calories per serving.

Amount of each nutrient per serving, which includes fat, carbohydrate along with fibre, protein, cholesterol, and sodium. This section also indicates the % of Daily Value for selected nutrients.

• Fat: An important source of energy, fat is a factor in normal growth and development. Fat also helps absorb vitamins A, D, E, and K. The % Daily Value for both saturated and trans fat should be as low as possible.
• Carbohydrates: Supply energy and are a factor in the maintenance of good health. Choose foods with more fibre and less added sugars.
• Protein: Helps build strong muscles as well as antibodies, as part of the immune system. Choose plant-based protein foods more often.
• Cholesterol: A fat made by the body, cholesterol is only found in animal-based foods such as cheese, eggs, and meat.
• Sodium: Found in table salt and added to many processed foods; most Canadians, including children, eat too much sodium. Choose foods with lower amounts of sodium.

This listing shows how much of the vitamins and minerals are contained in each serving, along with the percentage of the recommended Daily Value they represent.

Explains the percentage of Daily Values each nutrient provides; ≤5% is a little and ≥15% is a lot.
