Food Label Resources

Food Label Converter

The EU/Singapore Food Labels include per 100g column which helps us compare the nutrient content of similar products. However, US/ Canadian Food Labels use %DRVs to compare nutrient content.

 

To make it easier for you to compare a US / Canadian food label with an EU/ Singapore food label in a Supermarket, we have come up with this resource.

Please fill in all the relevant information that is on the packaging in order for the converter to work. Make sure that you fill in the servings and the serving size first before filling in the rest of the information.
