The USDA Food Composition Database is a fantastic resource for anyone who wants to know what’s in the food they eat
It lists all Proximates (Nutritional Values), Minerals, Vitamins, Lipids, and Amino Acids for almost all Standard Reference (Generic) Foods
It also lists many of these values for Branded Food Products although this data is much less comprehensive as it relies on the manufacturers to provide the information.
You can filter the report to show: All results, Standard Reference or Branded Food Products only. You can also filter on a specific manufacturer.
