Whole Milk nutrition label for Canada, the EU and the UK

The same 1 cup of whole milk, 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 whole milk

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

  • Saturated Fat - 4.5g per 1 cup - 23% DV, at or above the 20% the FDA treats as high.
  • Calcium - 280mg per 1 cup - 21% DV, enough to qualify as an excellent source (20% DV or more).
  • Protein - 8g per 1 cup - 16% DV, enough to qualify as a good source (10–19% DV).
  • Vitamin D - 3.2mcg per 1 cup - 16% DV, enough to qualify as a good source (10–19% DV).

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.
