AllRecipes.com - Just an FYI about any of the recipes encountered on the web

[Guest guest]

Something you guys might want to be aware of if you are watching nutritional

information...

 

My wife made an altered version of the Pat's Baked Beans (without the bacon).  I

entered this recipe into my Spark recipe calculator and it came out twice as

high per serving for nutrional info than what was shown in AllRecipes.com

 

I ended up manually calculating up all the ingredients via several nutritional

info sites.  Sure enough, however the recipe was calculated on AllRecipes.com

was wrong.  What alerted me was the fat content per serving on beans seemed to

be a bit low... so did the sodium numbers.

 

I'm not saying that the AllRecipe site does anything wrong or there's a

problem (I don't use it much myself), just be aware and if you are tracking any

nutritional info to pay attention to the numbers.  If it doesn't look right, try

to figure it out on your own.  After a while, you'll see trends on certain foods

and ingredients and you'll be able to spot check.
