Table Salt nutrition label for Canada, the EU and the UK

The same 1 tsp of table salt, drawn by the site's Canadian, EU and UK renderers. Canada keeps a per-serving panel in English and French with its own Daily Values and folds trans fat into the saturated-fat row. The EU declaration is per 100 g only, states energy in kJ and kcal, and declares salt (sodium × 2.5) rather than sodium. The UK table is the EU layout as retained by the Food Information Regulations 2014, with the optional per-serving column and %RI. One recipe in the generator renders all of them from the same numbers.

What stands out in table salt

Measured against the FDA's nutrient-content claim thresholds (21 CFR 101.54), table salt is notable for:

Sodium - 2330mg per 1 tsp - 101% DV, at or above the 20% the FDA treats as high.

These are the thresholds that decide whether a package may carry a claim like “good source of fiber”. The label generator applies the same rules to your own recipe.
