Calculating nutrition information
Ingredients
Ingredients' nutrition information does not require any calculations. Rather, you enter the amounts of various nutrients in a particular ingredient. Then the ingredient's nutrition information is used to calculate nutrition information for recipes and menu items.
Recipes
Recipe components can be ingredients and other recipes (sub-recipes). For each component in a recipe, Fillet checks each nutrient to see if there is an amount or if there is "No data". A nutrient amount can be zero (0) or greater.
After checking all nutrients for all components, Fillet will warn you if a nutrient has incomplete data. Fillet will also alert you if there are any errors that prevent nutrition calculation.
Fillet will provide the incomplete calculation for as many nutrients as possible, and will display these nutrient amounts with a warning. As well, Fillet provides the incomplete calculation for a recipe's "Total" nutrition and "Per Unit of Yield".
Menu items
Menu item components can be ingredients and recipes. For each component in a menu item, Fillet checks each nutrient to see if there is an amount or if there is "No data". A nutrient amount can be zero (0) or greater.
After checking all nutrients for all components, Fillet will warn you if a nutrient has incomplete data. Fillet will also alert you if there are any errors that prevent nutrition calculation. Fillet will provide the incomplete calculation for as many nutrients as possible, and will display these nutrient amounts with a warning.
