A friend of mine is very enthusiastic about this CD-ROM:
"The Santé CD-ROM has information on over 7,000 foods from the U.S.
Department of Agriculture (USDA) Human Nutrition Information Service,
and information gathered from your favorite fast food restaurants and
food manufacturers. Santé constantly monitors your progress by
checking each food you eat for 29 essential nutrients.
It's a complete nutritional analysis software program that breaks down
what you eat into specific nutrients such as calories, fat, fiber,
protein, cholesterol, 10 vitamins, 8 minerals and much more.
It tracks any number of meals, recipes, added foods, costs, and people.
It produces RDA graphs and multiple (user configurable) reports.
Colorful pie charts show calorie break-out of protein, carbohydrates,
fats, and alcoholWeight control graphs and reports detail calories
in/out and weight change recommendations based on user input of
activities (with over 200 exercises to select from). You can add your
own foods from label data and cost meals/recipes by entering the
prices you paid. Complete cookbook features include: select recipe by
ingredient, add any number of your own recipes, adjust recipe sizes,
substitutions & equivalents, nutrition analysis, cooking terms, food
buying & storage tips, and costing."

carbos, vitamins, minerals and much more. Full-text search finds the

Does either of these sound like the kind of thing you're looking for?
