Nutrition analysis of common recipes
Submitted by Marghanita da Cruz.
A Nutrition Analysis of common recipes - which is development of the analysis of the raw ingredients and packaged food provided here:
eg.Okra, cooked, boiled, drained, with salt
<http://www.nutritiondata.com/facts/vegetables-and-vegetable-products/2878/2>
but we need Okra cooked in tomato, garlic and lemon juice
and USDA National Nutrient Database for Standard Reference
<http://www.ars.usda.gov/Services/docs.htm?docid877>
and....the idea is reinforced by this recent announcement:
<http://www.whitehouse.gov/blog/2010/03/10/white-house-asks-about-healthy-kid-apps>
Purpose: Improve the Health of the People of NSW
Provide a better understanding of the Food we eat
Users:
Parents feeding their families
School Administrators when approving canteen menus
Hospitals and other Public institutions
Restaurants and Cafes wishing to inform their clients
School Curriculum
Shoppers - planning weekly menu
Carers
Nutritionists and GPs
Data: Complete Nutrition Information of common recipes - maybe fastfood - such as a kebab, fish and chips, greek/caesar salad,
USDA National Nutrient Database for Standard Reference
<http://www.ars.usda.gov/Services/docs.htm?docid877>
Complete list of Nutrition databases.

This would be a mobile ready website using open standards so will work on all Browsers and mobile devices. Can be available to Kiosks in supermarkets.
