Where can people determine the nutritional information of their actual serving size if it is different from that given on the food label?


Most food labels will list the serving size, from which all of the facts on the label are related to. The label also lists the number of servings per container. People can relate their portion or serving sizes to common objects. For example, 1 ounce of cheese would be the size of a 9-volt battery or a cup would be the size of a tennis ball.
